Nice seeing you all today! For those who are wondering how we did--the weather did not cooperate. 32 degrees F, snowing/sleeting the whole time we were on track, and standing slush/water didn't help anyone's mileage. Three of us Ecomodders made it out, with (correct me if I'm wrong, guys!) the following results:

brucepick (1st gen Insight) - 63.4 mpg
UltArc (C6 Corvette) - 34.7 mpg
Vman455 (3rd gen Prius) - 59.7 mpg

I was happy to beat the Toyota sales rep in a 2019 Prius AWD, who got 54.5 mpg. Take that, Gen 4!

Lined up on track and ready to go:



After all was said and done:
