Race Gas

If you are visiting a place that is just 10 to 15 minutes away try to walk or ride, as you don’t have any reason to use your car. Try to shop online as it can save your gas and money. If you have to visit a grocery store, then it is better to plan it out. Find out the stores you need to visit and plan a route which is least trafficked. Buy a gas gauge machine so that you can find out are you driving economically. Try to avoid hills. If you have to visit a place, choose a flat route rather than a hilly one. Your engine has to work at much higher RPM’S to get you up a hill –this wastes a lot of fuel. The aerodynamics of your vehicle is a key factor for those who want to maximize their gas mileage. Spoilers do not do any of these things for street cars. If you are going to be traveling somewhere that it is not a bike path or a ski resort, and yet you have your bike and ski racks on, you are wasting gas.

One of the best ways to cut down on fuel costs is to check your tire pressure. Utilize the cruise control feature on your vehicle. Drive your car at a constant speed, rather than a fluctuating one. Motor vehicle engines generally are happiest at around 60 MPH. Anything over that results in the engine working at less than optimal efficiency. So, though it is tempting to go 80 MPH on the highway, especially when you are late for work, chances are you’ll save maybe a few minutes, but you’ll cost yourself more than a few dollars. Researchers have found that drivers can save upto 10% on gas by just obeying the speed limit.

The Great Race


The Great Race


$15.98


Long before the Amazing Race television show there was the Great Race—a thrilling true story that will grab readers from the start to the finish line. In February of 1908, six cars from four countries gathered in Times Square for the pistol shot that began the first around-the-world automobile race. Gas-powered cars hadn’t been round very long, and roads were nonexistent as this group of hardy pioneers set out to drive from New York to Paris, hoping to cross the ice of the Bering Strait along the way. The Europeans were sure their cars were superior, but it would be the scrappy Americans in their Thomas Flyer, after braving twenty-foot snowdrifts, bandits, and many near drownings, who would win the race. In a book published to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the race, Gary Blackwood, author of well-known historical-fiction novels, crafts a thrilling narrative of great courage and splendid folly, illustrated with original, never-before-published photographs throughout.

17 men, 6 cars, and a 21,000-mile race across 3 continentsOn the morning of February 12, 1908, six cars from four different countries lined up in Times Square, surrounded by a frenzied crowd. The men who competed in the New York to Paris auto race were an international roster of personalities: a charismatic Norwegian outdoorsman, a witty French nobleman, a pair of Italian sophisticates, an aristocratic German army officer, and a cranky mechanic from Buffalo, New York. At a time when most people had never seen an automobile, these adventurous men set their course over mountain ranges, through Arctic freeze, and desert heat. There were no gas stations, no garages, and no replacement parts in case of emergency. Two men rose to the top. Ober-lieutenant Hans Koeppen, a rising officer in the Prussian army, led the German team in their canvas-topped 40-horsepower Protos. His amiable personality belied a core of sheer determination, and by the race’s end, he had won the respect of even his toughest critics. His counterpart on the U.S. team was George Schuster, a blue-collar mechanic who led the Americans in their lightweight 60-horsepower Thomas Flyer. A born competitor, Schuster battled Koeppen until the very end. Ultimately the German and the American would be left alone in the race, fighting the elements, exhaustion, and each other until the winning car’s glorious entrance into Paris, on July 30, 1908.
