It’s one of the more common questions we get asked when we’re racing. While we tell everyone that we use about 20 gallons of nitro methane on the warm up and run – it’s sometimes hard to understand just how much fuel that is.
Here’s a video – showing ONE (1) cylinder – and the amount of fuel that goes into that cylinder over the course of a race. Multiply that by 8 – hold the throttle for about 4 seconds – and well, you’ve burned a bunch of VPs finest race fuel.
Hi Terry,
I have a Dodge 440 or 413 engine in my garage from a motorhome. What would the value of it be?
Thanks,
Jeff Yost
