wow! if thats bad mpg i'm up a creek w/o a loache. (had to make it kinda fish related) we are limited to 6 gallons on our circle track cars and have ran out before! its 20 laps on a 1/4 mile!
I'm coming on two wheels though...might wanna reconsider...lol I know thats not fair but If that marquis has a 5.0 in it or a PI my 4 cyl S-10 sure aint gonna cut it...
ya s-10 aint gonna get ya too far, depends what your bike is? i might have a little something for ya!
Man I miss my car!
I live in an area with alot of nice winding roads and on a nice pretty Sunday afernoon, all the rich guys with their M3s, vettes, Porshes, Lambos, ect will cruise. Since its a road I travel daily I'm usually right there in the middle in my cheap econo-box playing along! I saw John Snyder (PapaJohn) last week down there in a red Ferrari.
Actually since I know the roads really well and my Ralliart loves to eat curves I can push some of those higher end sports cars through the turns. Too bad they blow me away on the straights.

I can't wait till the 22nd...it's bike week in Myrtle Beach and I can't wait for the ride down there it takes about 2 hours going 120 the whole way...
It is a 1991 CBR F2. It is in the shop right now
. I went to start it about two weeks ago and it wouldn't start and turn over. Turns out I ran it too hot coming in and really didn't sit for a minute before turning it off. Took the bike to my buddy's machine shop where he does his block work for me and other's. Took the head intake and head off to discover a blown head gasket and a fried piston. That's what 14:1 compression will do. It was all kind of good because it gave me a reason to tear into the motor and give me something to do this spring before summer. Last year it was port and polishing the heads and stretching it this year it will sport all forged interals now including piston, re-sleeved, and bored 25 mm. Hopefully that should push me past most of those 1000's out there.
