When ever i needed more speed id simply keep the car in gear usually 4th or 5th and pop the clutch and keep going. Kinda like a hybrid. This is entirely new for me so im getting used to it. This alone fetched me 39.5 mpg in high 20s low 30 degree weather. I am pretty impressed! If anyone has any inputs on this please let me know. Thanks!

That driving style got me up to 60 mpg in my Festiva Black Widow.
1993 Ford Festiva L Gas Mileage (Black Widow (retired)) - EcoModder.com
I got where I could bump start it at smoothly anywhere between 5 mph and 50 mph. I also ran a grill block full time and put some (ghetto) wheel skirts on it. I kept the tires at 60 psi.
