How much fuel


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi all I know different tracks are different lengths and different spec engines use more juice, but on average how much fuel do you all take with you for an average event.

Thanks

I tend to use circa 55 - 60 litres

Do you mean for a sprint meeting, or for a trackday, or a circuit race meeting?

A lot depends on how many runs you get.

With the bike engined car it has a two gallon tank. 

I'd fill it for the start of the event and depending on the track that would usually do me for the two practice runs and sometime 1st timed run too.

I usually carry a.20ltr can to an event which is usually plenty.

Like Mark says. In fact, even on 2 day events, with a 2 litre engine, a full (small) tank plus a full 20 litre jerry can would do me.

Ok thanks for the answers guys

20 litres will be enough but I always take more - not that I have ever used it apart from for people who haven't got their own!

Last track day I half filled the tank and took 3x 20 litre jerry cans. Reckon I used half of it and still have a good bit in the tank.
