Not an unreasonable approach.

I could limit myself to a 2 week prep period too... Like I go there in a a time machine 2 weeks before May and do what I can to mod in that day and age. Still I'm reluctant to do that.

Just got bact from the Chevron. The gas flow rate is 8s/g there.

That's a total of almost 4 minutes for the 3 pits (if MPG is 13). Shite. At least it won't be tire changes that slow me down.

I'm having no troubles picturing you fueling your car with a stopwatch.

I was going to say almost exactly the same thing, Billy boy!

I can't decide if John is a bigger geek than I. Personally, I think he wins!

(although, a pump rate comparison test sounds like a fine idea)
