I think it is way cooler to drive up to a pump and lift the deck lid to
refuel. Chicks dig it.
I have a slightly widen hole in the engine cover around the fuel tank inlet
which makes it as easy to refuel as with the external door.
BTW -- The Profiles is only for events. The POCA Newsletter is for
mechanical bits. After last year's brouhaha, I am not going to touch that
one. Also, the PCNC Newsletter is hi-res, full color and is published
on-line for everyone to see.

Sounds to me like a Profiles article lurking in there somewhere. .
.newsletter at the least.
