About 2,300 miles it says :eek: ouch. id guess about 600 in fuel at 17mpg and 4$. and thats one way. Is calvin driving as well? Well see what happens with getting to truck back together.

Waste Motor Oil bud....... 2300 miles would cost you about $150.00

Rally Weekend

I really enjoyed the rally last year in PA. This year I will be traveling with my wife to MI. Never been in that part of the country yet so this will be interesting.
Never got a chance to Thank Mel for the tune up. He said i got the "Most Re-tarted" Award for the meet at the Dyno day. I think he was right. My mileage went from 13 ish before to 16 ish after the adjustment for my injector pump. (Neg 1 to a positive 10) Thanks so much. Still have the yellow tape. Will be working on the trip details but just wanted to throw my hat in unless the camp is full.

That's great Robert!;Sweet
Somebody always has to get the most retarded award.:D
And that is one of the benefits to a different host each year. It's a vacation and going different places is one of the benefits.:thumbsup:
There's still lots available so get one reserved and post up in the rally thread and I'll get you guys on the list.;Sweet

I have to admit, this is a major award. We've been threatened with magazine coverage before, but it has yet to happen. The IDI Weekend has been the longest running and most sucessfull franchise for IDI enthusiasts for a decade now. It's time that it get some recognition! Don't forget folks, to set aside a few bucks now for your IDI Weekend T-shirts. I'll be working on them next month and taking orders in April. Ron continues to be more than a worthy host for this next event, and is doing a fine job. Everybody tips their hat for the promise of an awesome summer vacation!

Eric,

If I can swing the rally next year, I will have to take you for a ride...... it is a completely different animal than what you are used to.....
if i don't get a new truck by rally time and you make it up here with our excursion is this offer still on the table?
