Hi Lakedude:

___SoC is your “State of Charge” or battery gauge/meter. The third gear restart occurred at 09:45 and 18:03 in the timeline you posted. Why not a 5th gear start instead? You will still receive a fully pegged regen w/ fuel cut once she is spun up but you won’t receive as harsh a momentum killer. I loved regen when there wasn’t anything else you could do but hit the mechanicals but I hated it under most circumstances because it took so much momentum away. I have seen higher speeds and little to no assist give the Insight some incredible numbers and I think you might want to try it? Let me know how it works. Even though the Insight and your HCH are two different animals, they are of the same parents

___Good Luck
