Also wanted to mention that having a good navigator is key. My wife went with me last year and she used a stopwatch to keep my lap times within the window that was determined to be the "right" time. I also reset my MPGuino at the start of each lap and try to maximize it by slightly varying my changeover points. There are also several rally apps for your smartphone that will give you an accurate average speed to keep you in the right zone to score points for the overall score. Most points are awarded in the afternoon rally though. Bob has not prioritized the fuel economy event in the overall scoring. Usually whoever does well in the rally wins the overall.
