Hahaha, I hear that. My driving relies on three factors:
1) TPS
2) MPG
3) The proximity of other drivers behind me
I set my foot to a throttle position of 19 at fifth, just enough to crack 100-110mpg, and hold it for long enough for tailing traffic to become a concern, then I have to kick it up to 25-26 and accelerate to 60 (cry) - sometimes I have to MASH it to 30-35TPS and turn the Calpod switch off and let my 10% capacity 650MAh battery do some assist to help me get there.
