Since I trailer the car, I typically have 55gal drums that I bring to a weekend event. Most tracks have fuel pumps, so when you get off track you can fill up.

Whatever works I guess....

The hobby is already expensive enough. Paying double for fuel is what I am trying to avoid. I am allowed to leave the track and gas up. I can only do 2 sessions now on 1 tank of gas and the time between is tight at that time.

I'm not being a smart ass.

Option 1: Go to a local station to the track after the 2nd track session.
Option 2: I take two 5-gallon Eagle Safety cans and a long funnel. It can make a mess. I bag the full cans in heavy duty trash bags to keep my car from smelling like gas.

This $5 Walmart funnel will fit the capless fuel tank without the "emergency" part from GM.

don't push the hose filler all the way into the hose clamp. It will enter the fuel filler and can be tricky to get back out

I use similar 5 gallon cans - work great - hose has small piece of pvc on end that goes into the fill area - with vent by handle. Insert hose - pop vent and wait.

On casual track days I just leave the track, go fill up and come back.

5 Gallon jugs, $10 HF transfer pump and funnel from trunk ?


HF pump moves about gallon per minute and is easy to cycle on/off. Haven't used one for fuel, but does great job for aquarium water changes.

Use the 6 gallon tanks and the pump below. 2 D cell will pump many gallons. No mess , no heavy lifting. Used this at the track with My M6 SS on E85.

There may be better ones out there now......
