Most of the guys I know get by with between 16 to 18 ounces on board. Many run a 16 ounce main and 1 or 2 ounce header/hopper tank

Okay, so you do it different than we do out on the left coast. Out here, as you know Mikey, we run 5 unless the driver screws up

Mikey, two saddle tanks maxed out is 22 oz. Don't have to fill all the way. Yea I got paint, but that's a ways off. Like the commercial "Were working on it"

Phooey! You guys make it sound like an extra couple ounces will be a life or death difference. Ray, I leave the beach with 24oz. of fuel on board every time and you know how fast the Pak is.

So when are we going to see you come out for the NW Championships in October Don? I think it would be fun to see how your Pak compares to the boats out west

Love to have you come out Glenn. It's great to actually meet someone that I've met in the forums. Then again, if things go right, I plan on racing at Madison in July myself so............................................
