2 months - I got posted overseas - had two brief visits back to rack up 830 so far. It's killing me! Only two weeks to go on this project, but then it'll be snow-time when I get back to MN - arrrrrgh!

I hit 600 on the 2d day. There was 30 miles on the car when I bought it (hopefully without redlining it). It was 500 miles home from the dealer. I put over 100 miles on the following day. Damned shame I don't get paid to drive the stook. Otherwise, I'd never get out!

well if you think 600 miles is tough with a 5500 rpm limit... try it at 4k revs! My dealer told me not to get over 4k for the next 4-5 hundred miles!!

I'll be picking up my car right before Thanksgiving from Ohio to Gerogia (That's over 700 miles drive) I should be ready for VTEC as soon as I am back home?
I might take the whole week off to just ride around the east cost and visit my family members in Ohio, New York, Tennessee, And North Carolina. Just hop ethe weather stay up sunny like last few weeks!

Vary your speed and don't use cruise control.
