It's not a matter of one single techniques it was just fine tuning the arrows in his quiver. Keep in mind this was not his daily driver which responds alot different then this slug. Rick can add or subtract anything he thinks he needs to.

More efficient acceleration rates.
Working the terrain

Pluse and bleed
best speed to time the lights for a giving speed limit.
decleration rates 40-30, 20-0
