Another right hand turn at the top.
A traffic light I need to turn left at and try to make it green.

What would you do in this situation?

Pulse going down and hit 55 MPH+ at the bottom and EOC up?

EOC going down and as far up the hill as possible then bumpstart in 5th and DWL?

Hmmmmm???




At :29 you can hear my kill switch *click*
And bumpstart at 1:49
And a late kill switch *click* at 2:17

What hill?

I don't think I have anywhere in my normal commuting that I can coast for 1min 20sec... Those very gentle, rolling hills and complete lack of traffic would be nice.

I'd say you've got it about right, using as much as your momentum off the freeway as you can. Maybe a little more throttle for your pulse and kill it a lot sooner to get a long coast before the light. Plan for it being red rather than green since you can't see it until you are right there.
