Yes,

BTW... Eric's info matches up with both my street car information and larry 1 gal for 10 minute stuff.

Assume 30 min race = 3 gallons.

Eric comes to grid with light just turning on = 3 gallons left and then sputters on the white flag lap.

BTW... I have run my steel tank car out of gas and it also has a good pickup. Once it first stumbled I got 3 more miles before ir was bone dry and would not even idle. I can usally make 20 mintues with my light on, but I think the reserve in the steel tanks is less than 3 gallons.
