Haha... Fixed! :bow:

1st post updated. Please let me know if I had forgotten something.

Props for mentioning this. We are ambassadors. Let's focus on being friendly no matter what.

Are you guys planning on stopping anywhere else on the way up.

I don't know if it's been covered, are you able to come or are you just heading it up and won't attend? @Chen

I don't plan on it. But communicating with the app will probably be best.

I'll be there!

Ok, so since it appears we'll be slabbing it all the way up to the top secret underground submarine factory and missile base pre-meet location, who is down for making the drive slower and a little more stressful?! :D I'm thinking hyper mile challenge, with all the cardboard aero, seam taping, and truck drafting that generally entails.

Who's in?
For the record my best average for a similar length journey was 35.4MPG without employing any of the aero tricks above.

When I was driving back from the first mega meet, I got 40 mpg cruising 65mph

Woah! That on stock tires/alignment/exhaust? Those are the three areas where I know I'm losing efficiency.

I'll be taping my whole car and entering through the window...no seams shall be left untaped

rear wheel skirts
boat tail (maybe)
partial front opening block
folded mirrors
43+ psi cold tires

Bet i can crack low-mid 40's

Since the supercharger install I've been averaging 23mpg. Before I was averaging 28mpg. Moar power (or lead foot higher rpms) = more gas.

Even if i hyper mile, i will only get 23mpg. I'm out!

I don't believe you best I have gotten is 31...I average 23 but that's probably cause I drive mostly streets and local...oh and I hit the redline usually once per day

Guess your fancy diffusers don't work so welll then? :bellyroll:

I've gotten 34mpg before. Cruise control going 65

Seriously? @stockysnail and i both said we get 23 within one minute of each other and you don't believe him/us?!
Lay off the gas pedal, bro!

I've been going WOT a lot since the supercharger install and I'm still averaging 24+ with 50/50 city/highway driving.

yes, this was when i was fully stock.

It would be interesting if we all reset our fuel mileage calculators at departure and compared notes at the event.

When i went to kent washington 3 weekends ago i averaged 30.5 mpg and i was going 75+ the whole way except through tacoma where the limit drops down to 55.

@Chen is the first post still current? PDX people meeting somewhere before heading up to the rest stop in Ridgefield that the Google maps like is showing?

Should be right off I-5. Same rest stop as last year.

Geezer ain got no smart ass fone.
Guess I'll just drive like I stole it.
Oh wait I did steal it.

What time are we meeting at the Ridgefield rest stop.

Ditto. Still rockin' the razr.

@Chen I propose we meet up in NW downtown Portland (Con-way 2055 NW Savier) at 645am and leave at 7am to drive up the the first pit stop in Ridgefield that we will be at 730am to 8am. There is lots of parking at my work.

This way the Portland area peeps can leave from Portland as a group directly onto the freeway all together.

If voodoo donuts would persuade anyone perhaps I'll make a pit stop there first if you like this idea. :)

I'm ok with that idea. I'll update the first post

I looked up this address and it puts us at a Credit union. Is that correct?

Also Updated 1st post if you would read it over.

The Parking lot one block south of that. There's no address for it since it's a vacant lot but everyone will see the large empty block and my car. It's between 2055 NW Savier which is the Con-way building (and the credit union) and 20th and NW Raleigh.

did we ever decide on a phone app to relay the convoy with?

Still playing around with voxer and group me.

I've decided just to use voxer. It's a lot more universal and te cross platform. Everybody just needs to download, login via fb and I can create a group.

I just installed Voxer. It says in order to use walkie talkie mode I need to upgrade to the paid version. What use is this if we can't use walkie talkie?

Ive been using it the last 3 days without paying for it.

What time in PDX? Anyone leaving from the South?

6:45 and then leaving at 7. @OurFirst86 is coming from Salem.

I'm coming from Oregon City

Anyone else heading up vrom the south, Vit?
any others Corvallis, Albany, Eugene or Salem area?

Okay I am heading from Salem at 530am Sunday will meet up with Chen and all the other 86 can't wait! And I just download voxer! I am going to test this with my bluetooth connection in my car to see if it can be use to talk to you all while driving
