on the way down there, traveling with travis... MR OH MY GOD MY CAR GETS 100 MPG... doing about 50mph i was getting 35-40 mpg... impressive, when we were going 73 or so, i was at about 33mpg... on the way home i think i averaged like 24.. haha

all in all.. thanks ben and everyone for the awesome weekend... well worth it... makes me think about traveling more ;)

nice pics, but even after mod day, the guy with the white bonne has a TL bulb out :lol:

If I had the money to support myself and fuel costs, I would have gone. But, that was not there......Plus I don't think I would have brought the bonne down anyways :twisted:

The caption to the pic of Travis sleeping on the couch is the funniest fucking thing I have ever read on BC in my life HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I have to pee now.

WOAH, thats alot of pics...looks like yah had fun...i was wondering why you were not on all weekend..lol

love that one where you guys are driving to the farm....all in a line like that looked REALLY cool...the Bonneville Fleet...

Freakin awesome, looks like you had a ton of fun...
meets like that would be ideal durning the off time between big meets lol

killer video...haha, you smoked that 97...haha that was soo funny...

good job on the vid

that 97 is big_news1, and his car held up VERY good compared to mine...

we switched drivers for a while, and there was one time that think i was actually faster in his car than my car was...

sometimes its more about who is driving the car...

Great pics, Haro! I like the silhouette pic.... I hope we get as good weather for NEBF next weekend.....
