I was driving home yesterday and it was almost 70 F. I was doing my usual EOC to intersections and found I needed alote of braking because I was coasting sooo much better. I'll have to adjust for summer. I started EOCing this winter, what a difference 50 extra degrees can make!:thumbup:.

Same thing happened to me - came into a couple of turns / stops too hot and had to brake more than usual. Time to re-learn the glide starting points on familiar roads.

--- Today: 82.9 mpg (US) over 8.5 miles, 9C ambient, wet roads. This is driving in "real" conditions with other cars at a relatively busy time of the day (though choosing the least busy route possible that also afforded good coasting opportunities). |
Pretty good day today. Temps were 48F this morning then went up to 51F and are now back down to 47F.

I've been working on a new acceleration technique that seems to be working. If the results hold up, I'll share the information with everyone. That is, everyone that my team leader will let me share with.:D
