5gal + a full tank enough for a 600?

 

[jigs]

Not for both days I don't think,I would fill the bike...and have 2 ,5 gallon cans,you may have some left but it also depends on your speed,i.e."A" rider will burn more than "I"...etc.

I'm only in it for 1 day and am pretty slow so i should be good lol

Good post Jigs! I usually bring two 5-gal jugs, and I'll go top them off Saturday night. Road America is a thirsty track.

 

[Chgorrguy]

Oh man! Thanks for the heads up Jigs. I'll get another 5 gal this week.

+1

I burn more than 10 gallons a day when I CR and ride half to 3/4 of the advanced sessions..

and I'm on a 600. A 1000's and twins are usually even more thirsty.

Where does everyone hang out Fri and Sat night?

 

[greeny]

nice heads up! if you're out there for the full 20 mins, figure 2 gallons/session.

Jorden,

If I recall last time you really went through the gas. You did over 10 gal a day didn't you?

Cheers,
Steve

Sure why not? It makes getting to tech a lot easier.

Last year I rode all except for 2 B sessions over the course of the 2 days and went through 1 full tank and 3 5 gallon cans with a bit left at the end in the tank.

As far as hanging out, the bar in Elkhart Lake...the one the racers all historically hang out is pretty kick ass...it's "downtown" next to the hotel...name is Siebken's I believe...

Lincoln Street isn't bad either.

Y'know, I've never been there. Been to the Subway a couple of times, but . . .
