How far do you go before you hit fuel starvation?

runwhatyabrng · 09-03-2016, 05:48 PM

Car is pretty much stock other than things necessary to hit the track (brake cooling ducts, XP10/XP8 pads, RBF600 fluids, 25 Row oil cooler)
Decided to try and figure out How far I got before getting fuel starvation on track. Happened just at the 3/4 mark on the fuel gauge.

Track Calabogie, tires R888:
Filled up the car as much as I could 40 km (24 miles) away from the track. At my usual consumption of 10-11 L per 100 KM, I used up about 4L (1 US gal) to get there. Once on the track it only took 72.9 KM (43 miles) of driving to hit fuel starvation in the long sweeper between corner 6 and 7. Pretty pathetic

Yeah I know of the CJM rrp and the Z1 kit. With the US-CND exchange rate it makes it a little rich. Right now it's I'll stick to re-fueling before I hit 70KM on track

The first time, I was at a little over a half tank. The faster I got, the sooner I would hit it. Now.....I don't have fuel starvation at all.

Thanks to the RRP.
