I like track racing, and I like commuting to save fuel. Two different ways to enjoy driving. I slowly got into hypermiling; it's too much of a challenge and requires too much attention to go all in at once with P&G.
Try coasting out of gear to known stops. Turn off the engine at long lights. Accelerate briskly without higher rpm to your target speed and get into high gear/low rpm to maintain. I am constantly challenging myself to maintain momentum through curves and turns, and timing traffic signals to minimize braking.
Spirited driving doesn't always have to be about all-out acceleration or rushing up to stops.
