I think I'm in
Looks like fun, interesting and a great opportunity to meet some of my internet hypermiling friends face-to-face. I have a modified 06 Honda Insight and would expect to run the modified class, since it would be rather difficult to get back to stock. Some questions:
1. One of my modifications is removal of the passenger seat, since it is never used. Would I qualify as "no passenger seat-no navigator," or must I reinstall the passenger seat and find a navigator?
2. My car has installed an electronic control device to manually control the operation of the electrical generator/motor portion of the hybrid - commonly referred to as a MIMA system. Can the MIMA device be used in the modified class, or must it be disabled?
3. Many components have been removed from my car in order to lower the car weight. Does this matter in the modified class?
4. Which turns had speed limits below the minimum average speed of 49 MPH?
5. I assume there is no passing in some/all turns. Correct?
Hope to see some of you folks there. It is awefully difficult to get together in such a widely dispersed special interest group and this looks like a great opportunity
