Thanks for that Yard. I was already aware of that. What I was after is what is the average size of a fuel tank by litres, as you dont need 9 litres to complete at most a 15 lap race. So wondering how much fuel cars have in tank for race, that way I can make a tank to hold that but making sure less than 9.1 litres  |

Quite often we wouldn't put more than 5 litres back in after a race, but have put about 7 occasionally.

Comes down to the driver and how heavy their foot is.
When my kids started we'd easily get three races out of a full 9 litre tank, now they're more confident and going faster, we'll top the tank up after two.
In an effort to reduce weight some cars have a tank that will hold only 3 or 4 litres and top it up after every run.
