I'm bringing my neighbor - Lisa is out for this one. Really like to get him a ride in an elise too.

JnC already offered a ride, but I may put him with you for a bit if you don't mind. Either way, all is good.
LOOK FOR THE GO / NO GO around 8:00!!!
at this point, it looks like a go.

Just checked the weather and it looks like we will be able to get this in before we have any serious threat of rain. I'm calling it a go. I'll be leaving here around 8:30. Dave, I'll call you when we get fairly close.

Despite the occasional hoonage today, I got 28.6 mpg on that tank. I must be doing something wrong.  |

I think I can fix the splitter. Because I dragged it for 20 miles on the highway today, I've ground it down to where it won't hit ever again......

Crazy question... why not just remove the thing? It's not like it's absence would be more aerodynamically upsetting than what you have. |

Another quick note, you might want to view it on the actual youtube site rather than in the forum - that way you can see it in "high quality" which is supposedly equivalent to 720p when activated.
