Congrats on the new records. Have you considered traditional P&G with the engine off coasting in neutral? Your glides would be much longer than DFCO in gear. Coasting with the engine on in neutral is also beneficial if you do not want to turn off the engine. Coasting in gear is engine breaking, and it's wasting your cars energy so you could see significant gains by making the switch.
