nitro dragsters use something like over a teaspoon per combustion, so figure that for 5 seconds at 8k rpms, i wouldn't be suprised. i saw a dino run where the guy used 3 gallons in one run.

Did you know that...

 

NHRA Top Fuel dragsters and Funny Cars consume between four and five gallons of fuel during a quarter-mile run, which is equivalent to between 16 - 20 gallons per mile?

 

… that NHRA Top Fuel dragsters and Funny Cars use between 10 and 12 gallons of fuel for a complete pass, including the burnout, backup to the starting line, and quarter-mile run?

 

… that a fuel pump for an NHRA Top Fuel dragster and Funny Car delivers 65 gallons of fuel per minute, equivalent to eight bathroom showers running at the same time?

 

… that the fuel-line pressure for NHRA Top Fuel dragsters and Funny Cars is between 400 and 500 pounds, about 20 times greater than the pressure on passenger-car fuel pumps? … that depending on size and angle, the large rear wing on an NHRA Top Fuel dragster develops between 4,000 and 8,000 pounds of downforce?

that "8 showers" one gets me. Could you imagine one shower head in each cylinder, on blast, spraying gasoline into them?

 

Fuel injectors? pshhh....I use shower heads. lol
