Don't plan on getting a cage either so I can't spray every weekend and it only takes a 50 shot to put me under 11.49. So I will just do it once a year and see if i can improve from the previous year. Racing is my passion not spraying, I am happy to run 12's and still beat most of the competition and so far I am up $2100 for the year so it pays expenses.
Lucky - I only get to a track maybe 5 times in a season, now.... 36mpg ? You should sell your design to Pres Obama for the model for his energy conservation plans. .. I still get about 27-28mpg with my fully-loaded car - and my wife's 2004 Maxima gets about the same - but not in your league.

Actually I think we have a local T-N-T on July 16 - maybe I can get there, but only if the temp is below 95*F - another wonderful thing about the Midwest - heat and humidity are unreal in the summer
