NZSTfan should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Those boogity boogity NASCAR churns are quite large, about the same volume (or maybe even slightly bigger) that an office water cooler (note to all teams, DO NOT mix up your water coolers with the fuel churns, unless you like drinking petrol of course, or your car can run on water).

Soooo, one imagines that the car pits, jacks go up, drivers yank at each other to swap seats, a tyre or two may get changed, all the while some dude will thrust the churn male end into the double orifice female receptacle on the car (I did see a movie along those lines some time back come to think of it, but anyway I digress). Fuel goes in as per some sort of fuel volume counter (one would think?) and the car gets dropped and off ya go.....hopefully not in a sea of flames.

Does that sound like a fair representation of what we might see?
