How much gas will dd use for worlds?

[imco offshore]

OK here! this is serious,,, out of 6 days on the water,,, 3 test days to get the gear ratio, x-dem ,prop size right ,,, and 3 more,, green flag race days ,,,what will be the TOTAL amount of gallons used by the DAREDEVIL RACEBOAT? :rofl: Thanks, and i will cary a min. of 35 gallons on the first 2 races ( 18 miles )
and around 45 for the sunday race.

The boat just likes it since its light anyways !!!!!

Usually i figure 1 mile per gallon, is what it needs.

and 3-4's is perfect !!!!!!!!

I hope he burns 70 gallons. I don't expect a lot of testing.. He has said before he would rather break something in the race then during a test.

 

[phragle]

is that break or break-out?

 

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

Break, break out, run out. All = bad day.

 

[PARADOX]

In this respect, I rather be racing.
I used about 200 gal. on the 2008 Poker Run.. just to get there.
I used about 10 gal to go to lunch.

Is the tow boat included in the fuel usage?

That's harsh!:sifone:

 

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

4 gallons:sifone:

That's about what he used last year. So any more than that is an improvement.



DD must be working or something. I am surprised he hasn't had anything to say here.

I am rooting for ya Scotty.:leaving:

DareDevil should be renamed silly putty - for many reasons.
Man, he takes a beating here, but I give him credit that he keeps coming back for more, or less.
I'm always one that roots for the underdog.
But, I'm not sure I'd get in a boat with the underdog.
Good luck Scott.

How much will he put in his tank, or how much he will actually use?

You all are riding DD pretty hard ,considering none of you ( an entire svl field ) will not be using any fuel for the worlds .
funs fun ,but the largest roster of what was an offshore organization against one guy is a little harsh . I know he earns a portion of abuse ,However I am always puzzled as to the enjoyment of 5 against 1 ,
Very ghetto .

Yea I know ( mdkeywest banned ,date lifted never )

DD gives, DD takes... :sifone: That's the way it goes.

As MMMan said, we are rooting for him. Were really pushing for him when Mika came all the way over. Maybe this time is the time.....

 

[imco offshore]

yes were are all grinding,, but if he would to complete one or two days WE ALL would sit down with SCOTT and MIKA and buy them a lot of beer,,,were all racers, and friends,and i would give scott anything thing i had at a race so he could compete,,hes cool with us,,, and he will come home next monday and grind us back for the whole year. we just save it up! :leaving:

Yes Jim, when you were typing this they were putting eng back in (till 230AM)
I'm sure youve been there a few times!!!!!! All those last minute SNAFU things that pop up.
I predict there might be some Crow dinners this week.

 

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

I know all too well. Put motor in on Thursday. Show up Friday and test. Race return . Pull motor...Repeat..

Thing is he had a month to get it ready.

I just hope he does well.
