    It really depends on how much you are out on track. If your car is working well and your tyres and brakes are lasting (doubtful) then you will probably do more than a tank-full.

    If your tyres start overheating which is very likely in the hot weather, then they will need time to cool down. Brakes shouldnt take too much of a pounding around Anglessey I dont think.

    If you get more than 120 miles of track use in 1 day your doing very well. Even on full throttle 90% of the time the Clios should still do that just about. *

    I end up using just over a tank on my last track day but I did stay out all the time. IUts about 11mpg I get so say a 9 gallons that about 100 miles.[/url]
