Fuel Consumption
Just for fun, what fuel consumption are you guys getting at the track?
On my last track day I saw that I was using 17.2 L/ 100km -> 40.46 mpg. It was at Mosport DDT and I wasn't driving the car very hard that day as there were too many people on the track so I don't know how it compares to my norm. What about you guys?

CORRECTION.
This is like the tower of Babel. We have some talking about imperial gallons and some US gallons.

How about 16.43 imp miles /gallon for the OP.10Litres/100kms is about 28.23 mpg.
I get between 5.5 to 7.2 imperial miles per gallon on track.At Mosport DDT I get the 7.2 and the big track I get the 5.5.To produce horsepower uses fuel |

My fuel calculator may also be including the impact of highway driving as well.. .it's saying 17.3L/100km after two hours of highway driving so maybe the 30L/100km is the right number as I was out of gas in less than 2 hours track time... guess 30L/100km is a more std measure.

Who's turning it into a US vs. Candan thread? I love Canada and have family and friends that live there. My question would be, if you guys are converting to mpg, why are you using a system that is no longer in use(imperial)? I would assume if you are converting from L to gallons it would be US for all of us here south of your border...
