|
|
Had a great time this weekend. A three hour road trip each way for Brandy's birthday and swap meet wit the tops off for the first time both ways I found that the V6 doesn't much like 70+ mph for extended periods with the warmer weather as the temp gauge approached 215 before starting to cool off to just over 200 when the fan kicked on, maybe I'll remove the fog light air boxes that sit in front of the radiator. Gas mileage was OK too but I expected a little better, I was 40 miles shy of making the whole trip on one tank 304 miles on 12.8 gallons, might have been better with the tops on.
Great fun, lots of sun, tunes blasting with the tops off, only a couple of things could be better  _________________ 92 Camaro

Ya having the tops off has been great. but i learned a valuable lesson. don't wear your ball cap to the front or it might fly off your head..... I got it back though.  _________________
