You did well! I was finding a half a tank would last just two laps, three at a push!  :confused:

I tanned rougly 17.5 gallons last time out at Oulton - probably 65 laps @ 2.7 miles = around 10MPG.

Yikes.

Not as low as you guys but I travelled from Glasgow to Manchester on saturday night into a headwind (more like a gale) fully loaded with wife, 2 kids and a boot full. 75mph as my wife was very nervous about the weather and averaged 27mpg for the 205 miles.

I can get 36mpg but a full tank is gone after 4 laps of the ring, and trust me, one thing you don't want to see when hammering through brunchen is the fuel warning light! Run out of fuel at the ring and it's a 250 euro removal fee...
