I sent twenty dollars on gas for my roadster on Saturday. ;- } I didn't
think it was possible, but the price of gas has gone up to 1.99 a gal.
here is SoCal. Started out for the local stadium event, must have
gotten the dates mixed, no even, so I drove to Classic Datsun
Motorsport's shop in Vista ( about 45 minutes north). I wanted to take
a look at the SR20DET Les is going to be installing in a roadster, but
not one was home. Les left a note, back at 1, so I went for lunch (on
Palamar Mountain, about 50 miles) I was cruising up the mountain, and
the ground turned white, they still have snow. After lunch, I took an
alternate route down the mountain and back to CDM. Les showed me the
motor and I returned to San Diego. Stopped for gas, no change from my
twenty. What a great day.
PS: My solex 2000 still pulls hard at 5000 in 5th with my new low
profile rear tires (14 x 185 60s), they are about 2" shorter than my old
tires. The problem is I don't drive fast now that I am old ( others may
disagree ).
