I wish there was an honorable mention. More Air Less Fuel got 90mpg in the white "Cam" car, the second highest mpg i believe. Unfortunately he got placed in the Exhibition category with Illuminati and the Centurion. While the sole entrants in some category's automatically won with unimpressive numbers.

Ultarc's Mustang did 49.xx mpg. Quite impressive for a 300hp engine that'll sing vrrrrrrrr!

With the exception of Illuminati's electric car, the thing of note was that simple un-expensive gasoline and diesel cars showed up the hybrids by a large margin. 50mpg prii got little claps after it was announced Mloveland's civic got 75mpg. Another diesel (Jetta?) got 60's?.
After I got my award, they announced the Miata that got 38.x mpg, and my navigator (underscore_22) looked at me and said "Wtf? How did they get so little?" Lol.

I can't wait for the data sheets with the full results. VERY interested to see what some of those Prii did- especially the black estate.
