[Fot] Fwd: Cold Fuel expansion rate

[Scott Janzen]

Found this on line.  Looks like if the gas started at 50 degrees it would expand from 7.2 gallons to 7.28 gallons at 70 degrees.

Looks like a big fuel line would give more of an edge, or coming in early a quick stop for 10 seconds to add a gallon of fuel.  No idea how accessible refueling is on a SRF.

One of the Nascar tracks has a section in their museum devoted to what’s been discovered as cheating over the years. It’s pretty interesting to see.

I need to make 7.2 gallons of fuel go 75 minutes at Road America this weekend, where I typically burn a bit more than 1 gallon every 10 minutes.  I could soft-pedal it to save some fuel, but there is some quick competition out there.
