I'm from a Motorsport family , Dad was a Was a rally Driver , Uncle was in Touring Cars, I personally have done some Formula ford but for the main part I've been Endurance racing in Karts, At Le Mans, British 24hr etc Its the ultimate contradiction of going as fast as you can but trying to save fuel so that you do less fuel stops. Quite a lot of the techniques I picked up there are mirror'd in Hypermiling techniques!
