My first out of town drive with my car was from California to Texas. Yep. Just a phone call away from a tow home is how i looked at it, needless to say, was still nervous. After the first phase, pleasanton good-guys to morgan hill, the hood came unlatched twice on the freeway (not up, but un latched), couldn't get more than 7 gallons in it (due to a flaw David Pozzi found a in the Ricks tank), check engine lite came on and lost my power steering.
Fixed the hood latch in the parking light, watched the gas mileage for the seven gallons problem, power steering well didnt need it going strait and said to myself "self, screw the check engine light" i know i've got oil and water.....
Yep made 2076 miles on here maiden voyage, and got 24.8 mpg.
But the first time on the autocross track at the pleasanton good-guys, broke down first run lol.
