45 Minute Final may have Legends Out of Fuel (OoF)


Recommended Posts

A little worried about running a Legends 4.8 gal tank a little dry after 45 minutes. We will try to run 2-20 minute practice sessions on Weds to see if we can get close. Otherwise we will look like the NASCAR Boys trying to save fuel a the Glenn! V8

Yep. We are working with Randy and your Race Director Dave Lang to make sure this doesn't happen. We've pushed Legends and TR's 40 minutes (NASA time) at Miller before, but who knows what an extra 2 laps might result in. If need be, we will shorten Group J just slightly.

the rest of Group J can go 45mins easy...

Ok. So it's a sprint race for group J except the Legends. They will do a mandatory fuel stop - enduro style baby!!!

I guess I could do a few things to help with the fuel milage...Remove the "Push to Pass" button...Take a little wing out of the front AND Rear...Remove the "Large Nitros Bottle" oh yeah and drop the % of Nitromethane down a touch, but not too much, I still want to be competative. Did I say that outloud?? Steve

extend it for everyone - 90min sounds about right

Doesn't quite seem right to short everyone in the group. How about the Legends start from pit lane after 3 laps?

Starting for the pits??? Let's see... single file.. only 8-10 cars....and they are small...3 laps into the race time there should still be a reasonable gap at the tail end of the line....Standing start, no passing until end of merge line.. you know THIS COULD WORK! V8
