Awesome effort mate, that’s an average of about 930klms a day, in a splitty that’s an unbelievable effort, I am done at about 400k’s. Stay safe, enjoy your time at Volksfest

yes seats are an issue...
set up helps, I have a 1776 using only around 10 litres per hundred and so try and only fill up at around 350 -390 k so less stops, It has a tall tinal drive NUT the super tall 4th really helps and then 175, 80,15 tyres like subaru outbac use mean sits on around 108kph at 3000rpm, i guess to be fair a strong tailwind helped :)
