Broke my record ideal trip mpg

There is a small industrial area around my house where I have been practicing hypermiling techniques. It's where I taught myself to eoc and where I try to see the greatest potential of my hypermiling ability and my Honda Insight. My first attempts at engine off coasting led me to one run where I reset the scan gauge and got 101 mpg. Since then, I have been unable to match that except for one trip that was at night with no traffic. Today, I went around my industrial test loop and got:

120 mpg!

Great. Now I got another record that's gonna be hard to break.
