HOW TO SAVE FUEL
added: 03.05.2013
Although I have been exemplified Oval track, which I will comment applies to any track.
I conducted a study on how to save fuel for more laps without refueling.
As a rule and in general, we know that with less distance walked without making mistakes benefits us to save fuel.
But the study I've done is about getting the engine to consume less. Concretamento adjusting the carburetor with different values:
60
69
100
with this setting and with the engine idling consumes 5 cc. in 59 sec.
With the following settings, uses exactly the same:
60
69
16
60
8
45
60
93
45
But if we modify the following, consume different:
50
93
45
This consumes 5 cc. 57 sec.
76
25
26
This consumes 5 cc. in 61 sec.
93
23
25
This consumes 5 cc. 64 sec.
Based on testing, my conclusion is that the difference in fuel economy, mainly occurs during the moments that we stop giving gas. No carburetion influence in consumption when we are giving gas. But it does have influence carburetion settings in the car's speed.
For example: if you set "High-needle" to 90, consume less, but also the car runs less. But if the adjust to 55, the car will run more but will also consume more fuel. This commitment is what makes me hard to beat the riders listed below.
If you look at the conduct of Manabu and Graham at the Oval, we see that trying to do the least possible and give gas meters as quickly as possible. This, together with a good concentration and precision helps to get better times.
