CLASS RACER FORUM - View Single Post - No More Leaded Race Fuel after January 2010!!

Word is, those 43 cars average about 4 miles per gallon. The race itself, at 500 miles (Daytona) would use a little over five-thousand gallons (actually, 5,315 gallons,) but that doesn't include qualifying. I have no idea how far these cars go in qualifying, and that might be an interesting addendum to the 5,000+ gallon figure.

Anyone want to venture a guess on the amount of fuel used in qualifying for this race?
