"winning" with less fuel

Success! :)

Not my success, just beautiful driving viewing.

How to "win" on less fuel. The Alpha #33 taking on the white Ford Galaxie. That Alpha is one of the prettiest, quickest, coolest little race cars ever (love the Galaxie, too, for diff reasons, like beating Europeans, lol):

A Hotshot driven by Fritz Koster and Ralph Deshow competed at the very first race at Sebring International Raceway in 1950, and it topped the Index of Performance. The following year a Crosley Hotshot was leading its class at the Le Mans 24-Hour and could well have won the Index of Performance when its voltage regulator failed late in the race.

The inaugural Sam Collier Memorial Sebring Grand Prix of Endurance was a six-hour event, based on a complex handicap system meant to balance the field regardless of engine size, called the "Index of Performance."

It's amazing to see those lumbering living room American Fords compete well with the nimble telephone booth European Alphas.

Trophy trucks hold their own against the dune buggies in the Baja.

Yeah, but it jus' don't LOOK right :-?
