In one practice session at the track, I probably go thru 1000cc - 125cc per tank. Really deoends if I have problems or not.

I go through roughly 500cc, but of course if something breaks, the weather goes bad, gets dark, I run out of time etc it goes down.
But, roughly on a good day with nothing going wrong I'll go through 500cc and maybe a tiny bit more.

I normally use like a half gallon per session, so I picked it, but there have been once or twice I have run though like 2 gallons. [X(][>:]

How often are "your sessions?" I have one day decidated to driving my cars a week-Saturday. Get up early, run it, and get back at 6pm! Then the weekly grind again (maintence)

150cc tank on the GT2. I run it almost everyday, 1 tank is all I need if its right in front of the house. 2 or 3 tanks when I drive to my bashing spot.
with the 5T (under [sm=greedy.gif] construction),
I dont use it everyday, but when I do......

and for those 35 minutes or less... I'm free" [sm=50_50.gif]

I think the UK gallon is near 4 litres (like 3.95L) and the US gallon is 3.78L or there abouts.
In the end of the day, when will people learn, imperial sucks, METRIC is the way to go

Anyway, back to the topic at hand. I put about 1/2 gallon through on average provided nothing breaks and the truck is running well. Their have been times I've used a gallon and times I've used 1/2 tank. It all depends on how the RC gods feel like treating me that day!

RE: How much fuel do you burn in one session?
Perfect from day one! Im on the 3rd gallon with the same carb settings from the factory.
yes a little rich but Im not looking for new speed records
Im also searching for an electric (off-road) to run at night.
Just my opinion, I dont like to do conversions like that, just like the old days when people put 350ci chevy engines on Jaguars, RX7's and Miata's and I think they still do lol
I would stay nitro with the gt and look for a different car or truck for a BL/lipo setup.

RE: How much fuel do you burn in one session?
Yeah I see what you mean. It's just a bit confusing with all the parts needed to install the engine on the original IGT. Guess I just use trial and error.
