Default cleaning and run time

I purchased 2 4 gal. cases in march and have about a gallon & 1/2 left. Closest track is about 2 1/2 hrs away so I built a track on the back of my property for practice(pretty nice track with drivers stand). So I usually only hit the pro series events(sportsman class). I do a fairly quick clean after the races, filter,blow them out etc. enough to continue to practice at home. Then before a race aprox. 12 -13 hrs. This includes tear down, diff fluids, shock oil, engine inspect, wheel balancing, clutch, check and replace bearings if needed and complete clean on buggy & truggy. I only get to hit aprox. 6 races a year.
