Jack,
Right click on the link, then choose "save as". You save it to your pc, then double click on the file to watch it. You need a free media player, such as "Windows Media Player" to watch it. If you have Win2k, 98, XP, they come with it, I believe. Good luck.

Seems like it took him quite a while to run it. We've run it several times and it is a lot of fun. Do it in the early morning to avoid traffic. Then do the Cherohola Highway.

Re: Deal's Gap mpg (Green Hornet)
... Driving styles differ, but I found just leaving it in 2nd gear to be the fastest. What do others think?

Re: Deal's Gap mpg (savewave)
If anyone noticed, the miata did it in 14 minutes/11 miles. Thats not too bad.
I leave mine in 2nd alot too but have been known to use 3rd ALOT and even hit 4th from time to time when really pushing it but the pucker factor gets to me after a couple miles of 10/10ths driving. I like to keep it at 8 or 9 tenths. I dont usually do the loops, just the 11 miles.

Hard to hear the exhaust (or lack thereof) over the squealing tires as you throttle-steer through curves with a rock face on one side and a cliff on the other! :lol:
