didnt read my article? i did all of the math for you...

i also dont think that ford would do this if they were REAL sure that it would get to 1000...im sure that theyre going to get better than the advertised 31mpg.

I entered 1088 which is 34 mpg at 16 gallons. That is my prediction if they use the standard 10% ethanol gas. If they put in ethanol free gas I bet the car would get 40 mpg and that's 1280 laps.
