I'd ask for a PP score - and maybe a race review...
I'd suggest the Willow Springs 20 mile "super" event... as you get to discover the cars Fuel guzzling and Tyre eating abilities. Also how the handling evolves with worn tyres.
I personally run every car on Sports Soft tyres (To maximise tyre wear) and always stop on lap 4.
Good fortune with this, and have fun.

First time being Tagged...
In the 20 mile event at Willow springs the cars use fuel and it is depleted as you drive along. But different cars use fuel faster than others.
The fuel use for the race is not at all realistic... 20 miles... most cars should be able to go that far on a tank of fuel but in this race some cars can go the distance inside the fuel tank - and some cars can't.
If you string enough test runs together you should get a feel for which car is a Sipper, a Gulper or a Sandy Bottom kind of car.(*)
You can guess most times - Big Engine - lots of power... it is going to drink like a fish. But often a car can surprise you by how little fuel it needs. And it makes a talking point for a car review.
