I go a little further on my coasts now. My car has had a few changes from the first video. the biggest being 55PSI.

I had a particularly long coast yesterday from freeway speeds down to ~30mph as traffic slowed on my way home last night. Very flat and it took 40 seconds. You managed to somehow coast from similar speeds in twice that time.
Other than the tire pressure, how do you get it to coast so far? Is it slightly downhill for most of that in the video (from :29 to 1:49) it's a little hard to tell.
Or maybe that is typical, and I've got something dragging on my car?
I tend to leave late in the morning and evening, but I still end up in plenty of stop-n-go traffic.
