Hi Mikeyjd,
I am glad that you stopped by and are finding the topic interesting. I think the practical issue is in the eyes of the beholder. Everyone has different wants and needs what is practical for me may not be practical for you. What is the most important first and foremost is that its safe and legal to drive. All else is added luxury and individual wants and or desires.
If you would love to drive something that gets consistent triple digits then check out my TIGON Diesel Electric Hybrid kit car project. This is the most straight forward way to achieve triple digits without braking the bank account.
My goal is 1 Liter fuel economy with TIGON and this thread was partly made so that I could document and show the first prototype MPG testing and results. This will greatly help readers understand what it takes to achieve this level of performance in the real world at real world speeds.
Many of the notes and research being compiled in this thread I will put together in a much more detailed and refined guide book that I will offer as a companion to TIGON or simply as a great reference to practical 1 liter fuel economy for people who would like to study the topic.
So stay tuned,
GH
