The car performed great, as expected, and I managed Fuel religiously via UltraGuage.

The stated MPG was 28.5, using 15.8 gallons as the tank size.

Is that possible as I was running for very long stretches at relatively high miles/per/hour, usually the low to mid 80's...???

I was figuring that 55 to 65 was the sweet spot for MPG.

Anyway, I'm trying to adjust my schedule for the Daytona Event, and get to meet a bunch of you all.

Ahhh, the Sunshine State, I'm in pig heaven...lol...
I get that kind of mileage all of the time. On my trip to Denver and then California this past July\Aug. I sometimes got 30 mpg at 79 mph average.
