As a general rule, I've been following the "coast to a stop" philosophy. It seems to make much more sense to me to have the engine at idle as I coast from say 30-40 mph than to have the idle at at any other RPM. I also think its fun to see how well I can use my momentum to use the brakes as little as possible to come to a stop. This requires you to look far ahead as possible which is a trait you need in motorsports so its kind of putting theory into practice.
