I don't know that I have any specific pearls of wisdom to share but I thought I might just detail my unlimited process in case there's anything obvious to me that's not obvious to others. So, starting from my bookmarks ...
Starting at George Lucas I repair, refuel and buy the two rares. Oh, and I also spend quite a lot of time getting either pad 12 or 36 to start from (enjoying the casual ribbing from EDCoPilot as I repeatedly cancel docking requests). No point disadvantaging myself by a second or two before I've even started.
I plot a route to my Lave Station bookmark and then target Associated Pharmaceutical Services in the Nav' panel.
OK, ready to go I start recording and wait for the clock to hit :00.
Go - SCO to Assoc' Pharm' Serv' (never bothered learning an optimal drop-in angle), do the tunnel and then hit the resume route binding to switch back to my plotted Lave Station route before engaging the jump.
SCO to Lave and land, buy the rare, hit launch, open bookmarks and plot to Ridley Scott, then target Orange Sidey in the Nav panel.
SCO to Orange Sidey (again, never bothered learning an optimal drop-in), fly through the ad's, resume route to Ridley Scott and jump.
SCO to Ridley Scott, fly the station loop (re-requesting docking as I go if I get a bad pad).
Land, buy the rare, launch, plot a route to Shifnalport bookmark and go.
SCO to Shifnalport, land, buy the rare, hit launch and then use the 04.5 bookmark to target the Lave Radio Signal Booster.
This is an odd one. I had a hell of a job finding the signal booster in the Nav Panel but found that if I plotted using the bookmmark then, even tho' it gives no feedback and even tho it doesn't appear targeted when you're preparing to jump to supercruise, as soon as you do it appears targeted and you can then quickly SCO to it.
Land outside the trespass zone and do the SRV run (same route every time, which I did memorise).
Recall the ship as soon as possible, wait and board.
Take off, one boost up then open galaxy map and plot route to Mansfield. Doing this is about the only wasted time in the whole run but any other way I tried (even plotting the route while gliding down to the signal booster) left the booster untargeted and hard to find again. Jump as soon as I come out of the galaxy map.
SCO to Mansfield repeating the mantra "don't forget to sell, don't forget to sell". Land, sell, buy, launch, plot route to Azeban.
SCO to Azeban, land, buy the rare, launch, plot route to George Lucas and back we go.
SCO to George Lucas, land ... and breathe again.
There's also quite a lot of turning night vision on and off at various point (on for structure loops, etc, off otherwise 'cos the jaggies offend me), and also quite a few more mantra's to make sure I remember what I'm supposed to be doing next.
Anyway, that was my unlimited run process basically.
