62.1 MPG from Home to Work

Hello -

Los Angeles fire weather is helping me out :

Trip: home to work
Quote:
ROUTE : 10 West -> 710 South -> 105 West -> 405 South -> Exit Freeway => Roughly 27+ miles
----
NET ELEVATION CHANGE : ~210 feet drop
----
SCANGAUGE "CURRENT" READINGS :
62.1 MPG,
0.4 Gallons,
211 Water Temp Max,
27.6 Miles,
2106 RPM Max,
0.6 Hours,
60 MPH Max,
45 MPH AVG
----
IAT READING : Hot Air Intake led to Input Air Temp readings of around 130+ degrees F.
----
WEATHER(.com) :
92 degrees F,
Sunny/Fair,
14.5% Humidity,
37.5 degrees F Dew Point,
30.05 in. Pressure,
----
TIME : ~10:15 AM to ~10:51 AM, ~36 minutes
----
RECENT CAR CHANGES : Car is actually missing rear wheel skirts (me lazy)
----
HYPOTHESIS : None. Just want to reinforce the "good MPG" I get in fire weather. If I had all my aero-mods, this could have been a record. I didn't really have any turtles to follow. Check out that low Max RPM!!!
