Default V-Force fuel question

Im going to be running my v in alot of XC races next year, including one gncc event. The local races that im going to race in are 1 1/2 hours plus one lap. Lap usually takes about 20-30 min. So I figure a minimum of 2 hours of hard riding. My question is, will the stock v tank keep me going the whole race? Or will I need to pit? Will other bikes need to pit? Or should I get the IMS bigger tank? I did a search on yalls reports on the ims tank, and got some mixed reviews. Some people loved it, others said it wouldnt pick all the gas up. Thanks guys.

Default V-Force fuel question

At racing speeds and under frequent heavy acceleration, the V gets 13-15 mpg. You'll need to pit unless the race is less than 40 miles long.

Hope this helps.
