Ok, so which one of you guys drove the farthest to get to Carlisle this year? I backed out and I'm 3.5 hours away. Was it you Steve?
I salute all you guys for making the trip.
Let's give recognition to the man who drove the farthest in the BRUTAL heat!!!

Who actually drove their Road Runner the furthest? :drive:

exactly Vinny...... that's what I was wondering.

I guess it would be me at close to 700 miles! The only problem I had was getting stuck in a traffic jam for 1 1/2 hrs. The temp gauge went nuts going up to around 235! :brickwall: It only stalled once but started right back up, but the rest of the time I was slipping the tranny out of gear to rev it up a bit to keep the water moving Loads of fun. Even averaged around 12 mpg! Not too bad I guess.

I don't know how he did it w/o a/c

Steve might have driven the furthest, but I'm willing to bet that I lost the most weight sweating it off in his car.
Yeah, I think the carpet and seat are still wet!!!!! :jester:
