Will I run into fuel starvation problems if I'm running down to "E" on an autocross course?

IMO, running on E or with the fuel light on is a bit much. I run anything from 1/4 to 1/2. It's weight, but it's low in the car and the difference is 30-50lbs depending on how much 'extra' you have in there. Its just not worth it to be shaving that kind of weight. Some events I even run over 1/2, but plan not to run full if I can.

I do remove the spare tire and tools from the back.
