> this is true, I stoped at the suoco on 88 and they had signs up saying they were out of gas.I usually dont run that much more so I figured it would be fine. It is a sumped tank and 2 gallons in a honda is about a 1/4 tank.

are you accounting for the gas that it takes to fill the lines and stuff? running 2 gallons of gas in a race car just sounds like a terrible idea. What were you doing when the car finally died? Someone made mention that they saw you on the road? So you had problems at the track, then tried driving it home? sounds like user error to me. Shit happens anyways, we all play the game and know what we are getting into. Just rebuild bigger this time!
