Discussion
Excellent CNET produce another half arsed story on Aston Martins
No mention of the twin turbo V12
No mention of the fact it can run on a blend of petrol/H2
No mention it was a 4hr race not a single lap

Didn't TG do a race based on a number of supercars running around a track flat-out on a tank of fuel?
Thought it was with the usual stuff:- DBS, R8, something red and something fluorescent?
The DBS lasted only 6 minutes before it was dry IIRC. Ergo, on an 80l tank, at say a track speed of 140mph, my man-maths says that's only 14 miles covered on a tank.
Still wouldn't like to be the driver. What is the name of this thing btw? Graf Zep? or R102?

It was not on a full tank, but on 1 gallon IIRC. And it was not a race track but the TG test circuit.Thought it was with the usual stuff:- DBS, R8, something red and something fluorescent?
