Your using way to much fuel in a 1/4 pass JMO but 3 gallons max is plenty, you have to be really rich.
Really? And you know the altitude he races at, as well as the weather conditions, and his specific setup?

Better air uses more fuel. Heavier cars have more load and use more fuel. Every combination is going to be different.

Read the plugs... If they still have the cad on them up to the first thread, yeah, you're using too much fuel and could be making more power. If it's a bracket car and it's deadly consistent, who gives a $h!t how much fuel it uses.

We used 6 gallons of alky in an 1/8th mile pass last night... 10:1 568 blower motor. Is that too much?
I've raced is the mountains and raced at below sea level air no difference at all in alky usage .. 4 gallons is to much IMO I run 1/4 mile got 75 hits on my car this year and put well over 200 on them a year use 2- 2 1/2 sometimes 3 max guess I must be lean only using that much ??? :lol:
