Yikes! I hope no one is superstitious as my mileage add was 666!

I wonder if I win the prize for the least miles driven? (I have a home in Austin)

No, unfortunately that would probably be Ray. :skep

Kevin ===Haven't gotten home yet!

+- 4,900 SO FAR!

Including approx 175 at Texas World Speedway, 2 at the Texas Mile and 3/4 of a mile at Hennesy's strip in Sealy.


A tip of the hat goes to the true MILEAGE KING of Rally IV. Hilo Dave!

An estimated 3,700 from home to Rally IV. And that's one way!:cheers

We just got home to Ohio last night. If you count the trip from Ohio to Phoenix, the miles in Phoenix for Chip's functions, the drive to Austin, around Texas, back to Phoenix, Garrett and I traveled nearly 8,000, all related directly to the rally. However those miles were "mixed-mode" with air, truck and the cars.

KJR - have shown the neighbors the pictures of your GT when dirty yet?:banana

2,000 to go before home. 3 more days of windshield time.

I'll be back in PS-I-Luv-U 11/4 or 5. Let's get together and bend an elbow and play a game of Landscaper's Nightmare. aka golf.

Use protection!

2100 miles in my Ford Expedition pulling the GT in the Trailex. About 300 miles on the GT during the Rally. This is the first time I have trailered my GT to a Rally. AND the first time I have ever used my 3 year old GT trailer! I prefer driving the GT but it was nice during all the rain on the way to Rally IV to look in my trailer and see my yellow GT dry and CLEAN. :biggrin

Kevin -

I'll be in Santa Monica during this coming Monday morning, Oct 26, at Buerge Ford. I'm having them replace the window switches in the driver's door (they work but are sometimes intermittant) and the clamshell struts (weak). I don't know how long it will take, but I would assume at least a couple of hours. I plan to get there promptly at 7:30 am, so I figure they'll be done around 9:30 to 10:00.

A cup of coffee sounds great! :thumbsup
