Best Answer

about 2.75kg of fuel weight. (barcelona track - shortish) a gallon of gasoline weighs around 3.1kg. So depending on the specific type of fuel they use around a gallon an average racing lap. Seems about right. Considering supercars do around 5 miles to the gallon (1 lap) racing. Although a f1 car is faster it may use a similar amount of fuel due to weight and friction issues. f1 cars cut through the air more easily. It will vary depending on circuit of course.

Should Nascar racing be enforced with fuel prices as they are?

The question of whether NASCAR should continue racing during oil crises has been broached on several occasions, namely during the oil shortages of the 70's as well as the price inflations of the 2000's. In the 70's races were shortened in an effort to save precious fuel. Today, this is less of a concern, as the fuel used in a typical NASCAR race is of a much higher octane and would be unsafe to use in a typical street car.

Depends on what type race car you are asking about. A top fuel dragster uses around 22 gallons of nitromethane for one run down a 1/4 mile track. A typical Nascar vehicle will get about 4 to 6 MPG. Other race cars are somewhere in between.
