Default Back from Tampa!

Just got back from my Tampa trip with my 80' Duntov.
I got the chance to meet SharkTank C3 and to see his awsome 81'. His Vette looks and sounds awsome!!!! I also took him for a spin in my Duntov!
Later I went to tampa to meet with MeanGrean2000. However- I was 45 minutes late and he probably left already :(
I hope that we will be able to meet next weekend when I am going to drive my 68' to Tampa.
I drove a total of 750 miles with my Duntov this weekend. The average fuel consumption was 19 MPG.... On the trip back I actually got 20 MPG!!!
I never thought that I could get this kind of gas mileage...

:cheers:

Olivier

Olivier,

Glad to hear you made it home safe, and with good gas mileage. Thanks for taking time to drive down and show me the Duntov....especially the ride! That thing handles the curves great! See you next weekend. The video turned out like :U it was way too windy. :cheers:

I think MeanGreen had problems gettng his brakes back on and never made it there.

Scott

Sorry to hear that the video didn't turn out good :(
However - everything else went perfect on this weekend - especially the weather. (exept on the drive to Tampa) I had a really great drive back to Miami. Almost no clouds in the sky - beautiful cruising weather. I hope that next weekend the weather will co-operate too!!

:cheers:

Olivier
