I don't know but at $2.50 (or even $2.501) a gallon for premium I would like to move there!

All I get from this thread is, why aren't you filling it to full? Who has time to waste doing trips to the pump to shove it in 10$ at a time? That's stuff my old father does because "keeping it empty is cheaper"

There are people on this forum that spend huge amounts of money on carbon fiber this and that to cut down on weight. Then they go to the gas station and fill the tank with gas to add another how many pounds to the car.
How much does gas weigh per gallon? What's the difference in weight between a car with a full tank and one with 2 gallons in the tank? I would guess about $4000 worth of carbon fiber. |

We always used to laugh at the track when people talked about drilling holes in everything and weighting the parts or shavings to see how mush weight they had saved. They usually were, well, robust and skipping the 16 oz steak last night would have achieved the same result.
Fuel load was a consideration, usually for car balance. depending on the track and temp sometimes running a full load to half and others half to empty. (Very seldom did we run long races as that required a full pit crew.) |
