All right, I've made some improvements and now I might (might!) have scored optimal. 
I don't want to give too much away, but I will say that after my initial score of 60, I earned scores of 1?1, 1?4, 1?6, 1?7, and my current best, 1!1 (where ? and ! each represent a digit from 0 to 9). Also, in my best solution, Chip reached the exit with the bare minimum time left (1/5 of a second).
I can say that this level, in which it's not even nearly possible to get everything in the time limit, was very challenging and fun to plan and play, and was a definite improvement from last month's level IMO. Thanks for making such an enjoyable level, rockdet!
