I drive my car on the street. Yes you have to make determination about resale of car however if you have put a cage in your car etc its an option. It's not quite the same commitment as fuel cell.

If I had a dedicated race car I'd go for a fuel cell for sure. Stock tank isn't worth keeping regardless of what has been dropped into it to pump fuel. That's smart? Lol!

It's cool that we have variety of solutions.

It's all good! Mines cheaper and simple minded though.

Yes that my overall take on it. I dont consider the method to be solving a problem so much as just throwing the problem out the window

The only value I see in it is the space gained to install other components. The point of fixing fuel starvation was because the community was complaining about having to stop and fill up the fuel tank all the time. Cutting overall capacity to less than half, and still not adding any fluid placement control to the remaining portion which means fuel starvation is still going to occur with probably 1.5-2 gallons left, doesnt sound like the solution... more of a serious compromise.

Let us know how well the fuel gauge works, with the missing sensor.

If you had a dedicated race car, what would your justification for installing a fuel cell be? Is it a rule/requirement in your sort of racing?
