No racing for me... Will ski some with the kids and spend the evenings in the pool with a cold drink in hand..

I had to refuel, and will have to again this year. I think we got gas in Petosky?

Just curious, becaue I have never done a poker run this long. I figure I can make the entire run with out refueling, as long as don't run W.F.O. too long.

Bunch of girls!!!!!! If I take it easy I can run 450 miles, and if I ran WOT about 200 miles

All kidding aside there is a gas dock right by the lunch stop on Round lake, I'd fill up there.

I can make the 150 miles cruising, but I am sure the pace will be faster than my usual cruising speed. I just hope if I stop for fuel, I'm not the only one. Good to know where all the gas stops are at, just too bad they don't sell 92 or 93 octane.

The old merc. SC motors like to burn fuel.....

Make the first half, stop for lunch and get fuel, problem solved

FYI, we had a BT meet tonight & (not my liking, we tried hard last year, no deal) but gas/octane issues will B up 2 the participants!! Ward Bros in the corner in Round Lake has I guess what they term 90 recreational, no ethanol! So if U need more U may need 2 bring some boost!!! Sorry, do'n what we can!!!
