Hi Elfur!


Aw come-on ... Even with a one gallon tank, that's only a measely 868MPG!

Minimum sweat! ;-)

(Who remembers watching old black and white footage of contests like 
this. They've been held every so often for quite a few years. {Not 
even counting the GM Sunraycer team and the solar challenge cars!})

[Anybody else remember an old TV advertising campaign where they used to 
drive two cars around a circular track to show how much further you could 
drive on a gallon of _their_ gasoline?]
