From: Leeds - It was 562.4bhp@28psi on Optimax, How much closer to 600 with race fuel and a bigger turbo?
Get the hang of that dog box and try changing into 2nd.

I get 8 miles to a tank....but then it's only a one gallon tank. Fuel comsumption leaves a lot to be desired though
Edited 'cause I'm dislexic

I don't think any of us "buy" petrol, it's simply a case of renting the stuff for a few miles ! I reckon 150-175 is about average for me
