I want the scoops on aero mods and driving technique.

Ive actually been doing a lot of coasting.
Clutch In at low speeds
Neutral in higher speeds
Redline up the hill (j/k)


I think we covered aero too, but feel free to chime in.
From my experience at Bonneville,I'd say skip any mods in front of the rear wheels and go directly to full rear skirts and at least 12-inches of boat tail.The rear of the car is responsible for most of the drag reduction and fuel economy.All the front mods barely showed at the trap.Honda has done a very good job for a car this short.
