When you come off the course after your third run at a Divisional or
National Tour event, Tom, you're usually required to go STRAIGHT to
impound.  No time there to add fuel.  At the TireRack/SCCA Solo
Nationals, you go back to your grid spot after your third run and wait
until EVERYBODY is called to impound.  But don't expect to add fuel
during that time lag, either.  You'll get protested in a heartbeat if
you do!!!  8<{)
