The Indianapolis 500 demonstrated some interesting quanta:
* six tanks of fuel per car, at 18-5-gallons (US)/ tank [ 70-litres / tank ]
* 95-miles ( 153-km ) range per tank
* six sets of tires per car ( changed at each pit stop )
* to average 233-mph ( 376-km/h )
* 1,655-pounds empty
* In recent past, Indycars have produced up to 6,500-pounds downforce
* Dynamic 'weight' up to 8,155-pounds
* 111-gallons of fuel
* 500-miles
* 4.5 miles per gallon
* The Corvette Stingray Official Pace Car, at interstate velocity, is capable of over 32- mpg
* Speed, lateral g-forces, and induced drag is costly
