I am a witness to this. MY 96 Z28 got far better gas mileage at higher speeds. My record with that big LT1 was 31 mpg on the 294 leaving Chicago headed toward Indiana. I then took the 80/90 toll road into Indiana.
I do not have to tell anyone how I was driving that Z28 on 294 during one of the ever-so-rare times it was not tore up.
Oh, to be that young and dumb again. The Holy Blessed Mother of Acceleration was smiling on me. Now she has forgotten who I am.
