I have 20 receipts from fill ups and know I'm missing at least three, maybe more. Average about thirty dollars a fill. So about $690.00 in fuel 23 fills!
1/2qt. of oil.

That 13g tank is a pain on a long road trip.

One ground issue with the tail lights related to a ground issue with the fuel-gauge. Lights are working, still an issue with the gauge. The idiot light is still on.(check engine) Some issues with the DSE electric RS headlight units, it gave us a hassle the whole way now I have some zip ties holding it together.(works better now) I also noticed some 'sweating' of fluids from the rear.
Valve cover coming lose, a loose lower radiator hose. Some interior fit issues that became a bit of a pain.

That's about it!

Trunk shot. Tools, gas, wash stuff and a "bike dryer" for drying the car. (warm filtered hot air)

Man...that is so bad ass. I am so jealous of not only the car but the experience you had buying it. Congrats again...:thumbsup:

Sweet pics and story Dave. We need to meet up some day so I can check out your new badass ride! :cheers:

Whew, I think I need a cigarette and a nap .....

Thanks Dave for letting us join the ride !!!!

You are one very lucky man.

:thumbsup:

Jim

Thanks for all the positive replies! It was truly an adventure and we both had lots of fun. I have some before/after pics from the detail shop, kind of interesting.
Which reminds me, Jason how much is that carbon fiber front spoiler?
It took a hit along the way, pics will follow...

Oh ya that radar detector in a pic or two above saved us lots! We also had some unreal radar 'karma.'

Later!

Consider that done, I plan to road trip to Vancouver with the car, hopefully this fall if I can pull it off. (busy at work)

That sums it up nice!!!

A few from the "Auto Salon"...

Where did you end up getting the escort detector at?

You can get them most anywhere, picked that up at BEST BUY

Dave,
Jason tells me that Fuel is shutting off a little too early for your liking. Email me your physical address and email. I will email a file back with no speed limiter and the nearest location that can upload it for you, or I will send you a loaner cable.

Glad you are enjoying the car! I am sad to see it leave...but glad it has a good home.

Thanks

Thanks Dennis you have PM.

Dave,
I have an empty 18 wheeler headed up your way to pick up 500 cases of Coors. Do you think that you and "Fuel"" could run interference Good Buddy!
Great story. Enjoy the car.
Scott

I think you'd be running the beer the wrong way but I'll help out Quicksilver where ever and when ever!
Hope your driving that thing!

Great story. Hot rods and adventures go together like chocolate and peanut butter...or something like that. :thumbsup:

DAVE,
You are my hero for taking on that inter-continental trek:hail:
Those memories will last a lifetime.
Yes I am driving the car but nothing like you did.
I did take my car to the track with less than 300 miles on the clock.
But hell I imagine you are probably out shopping for snow tires so you can drive all winter.
You have enough power you could pull a 4 sled trailer.
What number did G Force assign to you car?
Mine is "004"
Scott

damn....one of my favorite rides around... i wonder what it sold for?

Good luck on that! That is what makes America great is the opportunity to sell a car for what it's worth if you build a bad ass car.

006~ sorry the pic is lame.

So I guess the new G-Force SEMA car (which is going to be amazing) is 007?
That'll be cool!

Have not had a ton of driving since being back, super busy at work.

I guess but Fuel is Canadian now....
