22.8 mpg on the drive to SLP day at OSW

That was including a few run ins with a stang and a few other people on the way. As well as sitting idling in the line to get into the track at Orlando Speed World for atleast 25 minutes. I think on a straight highway run i could get 24+ mpg Hwy. Not bad for a 430+ rwhp motor. Gotta love GM powertrain guys

I avearge 21mpg driving to work and back in an A4 so 24 is not a stretch for you with an M6. I got 23mpg driving from here to NC last year.

Damn straight. I filled my car up with 13 gallons of Mobil Super on Friday, zeroed the trip odometer and put about 12 miles on it until the next day when I went to OSW with the caravan, drove back to Tampa, and ran some errands Sat. night and put a total of 298 miles= approximately 23mpg average. Not bad for a 93K mile LT1 with some bolt-ons.
