Congrats......that's a ton of miles.
The SD is approaching 200K and it will take another 10 years to get to 300K. Where are you going in NY? |

It's already snowing above 9000' altitude. I was in Cripple creek on friday and they had got about an inch before I left.

I just put another 350 miles on my car in the past 2 days.... I am only 3,043 away from 250k!! I ran for 4.5 hours today at 80-85mph, and I got an incredible 26mpg!! Engine is WAY quieter at 80+ on synthetic oil than it was on dino, its amazing! Also runs incredibly smooth at those speeds. With my boost adjusted I now run about 11psi at 80mph and 13 at 85+, it effortlessly climbs to 100+mph with the boost pegging around 13.5-14psi. I can't wait till 250k, I should be near it by new years or so...depending if I make any other trips....
My dads car is less than 25k away from 300k. He drives like 400 miles a week most of the time, so he'll be there in no time...
