Anyone with a guess how much fuel would be burnt in 8 hours with the engine idleing with AC on (for those who don't have a frigidair laying around)?

Default No sat dish ?
Hell we went to Cancun and took some back roads to see villages. They had bamboo huts with a hammock but every hut had a sattilite! Now that's funny don't care who you are!

BTW guys, Wallyman showed his track Home Makeover, but he didn't show you his track car did he?

Well, look and drool! He was real careful with it on track and babied it when he had it in the paddock.
