Mr Leeds,
Soooo, Ya wanna take a ride to Ca. Well ya just struck pay dirt !!
Last June, Mike Young & I ( Herb Petty ) both Roadster nuts, from central / northern Ca
drove to Denver, to visit the local Roadster folks. We even got there in time to drive in the Parker Parade, with the Roadster bunch--Really a great time. The Roadster guys rolled out the Red carpet. The weather was beautiful, & John Over ,The lord & master of WYCROC,
the local Roadster Club really looked after us. We drove across hwy 50, to Grand Junction, Co. We then took hwy 70 over the hill into Denver. I drove a 1966 / with a Ka-24 motor, & Mike Young drove a finely tuned 1967.5 Solax 2000 Mike's car averaged 24-26 mpg for the whole trip, & my Ka-24 did alittle better. I should add, that most days, we never drove under 90 mph. I know, I know,!! ( What a crock ) so, we took speedo foto's of both cars while driving. In case anyone had doubts ! Anyway if you'll send me a phone #, I'll call ya this wknd, & fill you in on any questions you might have. ( We had one Hell of a great time )
