Default One Lap of America

I just wanted to post to tell everyone I'll be participating in One Lap of America in May 2007. I'll be doing it with one codriver in a heavily modified 2007 VW Jetta TDI. We will be in the alternative fuel class. I'm very excited. We are currently seaking sponsorships. A VW dealership and a race team have commited so far but there's plenty of room for more stickers if you're interested!

Anyone have any experience, thoughts, suggestions?? thanks!

Excellent! I'm a TDI fan so I'm happy to see one running in the event. If there's a trophy for the least fuel used I'm sure you'll win it. Keep us updated please.
