Mind you, I don't race it on a track every day, or sit in city traffic, which I would expect to drag it down, but I am always the first off the light (sorry for the disbelievers but I've never been beaten by a soccer mom in a minivan) and consider every "Caution 25MPH Curve Ahead" sign as a challenge to better than double it.

Well, braking as little as humanly possible is one of the major tenets of hypermiling. Another is accelerating briskly to cruising speed (somewhere around 80% throttle)
