Depends on what you get, where you are and brand. I get Sidewinder for about $18.00 a gallon. Some can get up to 30-40 a gallon.

Which if you have a 1/10 scale, you will have a 75cc fuel tank in it, and one gallon will do about 48 full tanks. You can get anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes running time per tank, which all depends on how hard you run it.

If you are running an 1/8 scale you probably have 125cc tank. You will get around 7-8 min with a .28 and around 10-11 min with a .21 on a track. Bashing is a different story no way to get a consistant fuel/tank time. 1 Gallon = 3785.411784 Cubic Centimeters, you get 30 .283 tanks per gallon. You get around 3.5 hours with the .28, and around 5 hours with the .21.
