Default Burning oil in record time

Last month I made a run up to Kelowna with a few friends. I fueled up and checked the oil just before we left Kelowna. By the time I got into Merritt the tank was near empty - so was the oil! It required about 1.5L to get the dip stick back to where it was in Kelowna.

I've never seen anything like it before! Is this a record?

What the hell, you came up to Kelowna for a drive, and didn't post about it? I would have met up with you for a drive, and shown you some fun roads... it's not often that I see any other s2k's here.

My car burned 1L in about 6-7 hundred kms. i was surprised when i checked it. That was the most i have seen.

1.5L in 132kms is just crazy

We went up to Kelowna twice in October. One was for my stag, let's just say I rather not have anyone in Kelowna recognize me . My best man almost pissed in his pant after a few runs up and down Knox mountain, initial D style.

Both times the car used up about the same amount of gas and oil from Kelowna to Merritt. If you ever get a chance to burn a tank of gas in 132km, check your oil and please confirm that my car is not an oilholic.
