How do I join a team?

Ok - my first time being on a team. How do I report and what do I report - I don't want to be the straggler on the team!

31st May 2007

243.2 miles 5.74 gallons 42.36MPG

I need to fix my EBH this Sunday - it keeps getting put off. I also need to get the SuperMID fixed. I'm still happy as this is very good considering I have been driving faster + in more traffic.

New Team Thread
 

Post your availability in the New Team Formation Thread -- including your approximate location and details of your vehicle. There are 2 others interested as well -- so it may be a quick process of getting a couple others on-board (5-member teams: 4 is recommended as the minimum to start, but if you don't get a 5th member by Week 3, there's a 5% penalty off of the final tally. IIRC, you can have 3 to start, but 10% is taken-off if that remains the final number at Week 3). 2=d/q.

A new team can begin at Week 3 or earlier, with your 90-day averages back-calculated to the start of the Cycle.

Competition Overview
 

Dax-

A quick overview: The cycle is 42-days, all fills are a minimum of 3-gallons, and the object is to improve your %-over EPA from the start of the Cycle (which is calc'd from your 90-day average vs. the car's EPA combo figure).

If you don't fill in a week, a weekly estimate of FE is requested to be sent to either your TC (Diamondlarry), posted in the Standings and Stats thread (here), or via PM to me -- any rough estimate is OK: SG/SmID, gauge, etc. The easiest (for me) is to update your TC, and recieve one update per team.

Take a look at the latest Rules with the following Supplement LINK. The "Top-10" items are listed first, and then it gets more detailed as you move further into the document.

Let me know if you have any further questions...

Best FE,

Filled tonight: 365.8 miles driven, 7.088 gallons used = 51.60 MPG(US)

Pretty good fillup
 

Filled this morning. 668 miles, 10.2 gallons, 65.49 mpg, ave speed 31 mph :) .

Yesterday I added a rear piece to my belly pan. It still is not complete. Muffler is not covered. I added a radius to my front wheel ring skirts.

This was all commuting except for a 20 mile run down the freeway this morning at 60 mph. For those 20 miles, ave speed 57 mph, 58 mpg including acceleration and deceleration. No EOC, only P&G was start and stop and turn around. Steady state was real close to 55 mpg. It was about 75 F with light cross wind. Trying to decide whether or not to go for 60 mpg at 60 mph. It seems more possible all the time. I have not installed the wide band O2 sensor yet.
