Default Made it to Hot August Nights
Planned on towing the Chevelle to HAN but it wouldn't go on my trailer this morning. So I decided to just drive it. Sounds simple enough, but the wife was going also and the last thing I wanted was to break down somewhere with her in the car. I haven't driven it more than 10 miles or so at a time up to now. It's about 150 miles from my house to the Atlantis where I'm staying, car ran great no issues. I did stop at elevation and re-did the fuel map real quick as it was dead lean up here. Temps never broke 190.

I'll report back when I get home, lots of cars up here.

Jody

Car looked great Jody , I saw it as I was crusing through, if only I could have found a place to park (lol) I would have looked a little closer and BS'ed with you. I got there to late in the day though, next time I guess.
