How fast are you planning on driving down? If you can keep it to 63mph, you should be able to lean burn most of the way. Or you might decide 55mpg is good enough, and go 74mph.

You should have a drag race: Both of you get up to 55mph, side by side, and shift to N at the same time. Whoever rolls farthest, wins.

A stock Insight has a slight aero advantage over a stock CRX, but if you have snow tires on, Ben's LRR Potenzas should be enough for him to win.
