This is the way to do it. Also, as a time saver I flank speed to Midway. The diesel is free there so it does not matter how much I burn up between Pearl and Midway.
Tried that last night, plenty of fuel, even had enough to chase a convoy at ahead full for about 10 hours and not worry about consumption
