    Thanks Jimbo!

    One question, what MPG were you able to get during the driving clinic?

    I got 71 MPG. :( The reporter got 80 MPG. :D



    I think during my segment I was paying more attention to describing technique and answering questions than to actual execution. I had done a test a few days before on that same loop and got 90 MPG.
