Group, If you are a lone owner some distance from a club, I encourage you to make the extra effort to join and get together, even if only occasionally. If you ever have a chance to caravan with one or more DeLoreans, DO IT! Cameron Dengler and I made the run from Vegas to Phoenix and back this past weekend with our families (my wife drove the chase Yukon with luggage and extra kids). The AZ-D was having their holiday party and we weren't going to miss it! I think we pulled eleven DeLoreans together in Phoenix, including a "new car" delivery from DMCH to the party! This was my first chance to really drive any distance since I bought my D in May. It's been chomping at the bit being a daily driver. I had no idea how much it wanted to GO. Both DeLoreans performed flawlessly round-trip, gobbling up the hills between Vegas and Phoenix. I rarely had to downshift, so I really have no justifiable complaint about the power of my D. Downhill was a blast... soaring through curves at 75 MPH in neutral for 2-3 minutes at a time. With the sun shining, 88 MPH on the GPS speedo and Cameron's iPod broadcasting "Back in Time" to all three cars on "Radio Free DMC," we had a great time on the return. Best Wishes for D Holidays, Marv #10820 AZ-D P.S. Bernie, you are not alone. I broke my speedo too. :) --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "Bernie" <bmanderville@xxxx> wrote: > car.
