I believe he is probably still prettty tied up with a major project at work. That was the original issue, and I believe it's probably still true. I'll bet Brnadon will chime in here before long and verify.

He got mad at me once because he had developed this formula that figured total RPM's based on speed. Something along the lines of 70 MPH=2,000 R's not including variables for wind resistance and bla bla bla. I told him I run about 2,000 R's at about 74 MPH. He didn't like that too much. I guess it sent him back to the drawing board.

Just like there is really no explaining why some of us get good mileage (18mph +) and some of us don't. Just the luck of the draw I guess.

I passed Alan on the road going home the other day, tried to call him but only got the "plz hold while the nextel customer your trying to reach is located" MSG.
He must be into a heavy work load, I know the FD in Montgomery (where he works) has been doing alot of upgrading , and he also works on the side for a network design and install co.
EDIT: I also run about 72MPH at 2000RPM
