Have you looked into the possibility of having the fuel delivered straight to the track for you. Or if you could connect with shops near the tracks you frequent that would deliver it for you.

But just for funsies:

BRZ + trailer = 1.75 tons
1.75 / 5 = 35%
60 gallons vs. 1000 gallons
60 / 1000 = 6%

So his setup would have roughly 1/3 the weight, but only be carrying 6/100ths as...

Where are people getting these 800-1000 lb trailer weights from? According to Google, E85 weighs 6.59 lb/gal. So 60 gallons of the stuff would be less than 400 lb. Add 300 for the trailer (which is...
