how much nitro does a top fuel car use?

They burn way more then 15 a run! We run a Nostalgia Front Engine AA/FD and it burns 15 a run, with a 21GPM pump... Big show cars have two pumps equaling over 100GPM
 
They burn 4 to 5 gallons in a pass, 10 to 12 total including burnout with a pump that has a flow rate of 65 gallons per minute.

This is what they burn. I pulled this right off the NHRA web site. This is also the same info Doug Kalitta gave me at Las Vegas in his trailer a couple of years ago.
