P.S. I usually put small amounts of fuel in at a time to keep weight down.
Unless you have a dedicated race car, you shouldn't bother with a fuel cell. I think a 5 gallon cell on a road race car would be a bad idea; but maybe on a drag car. I think the weight difference would be negligible when you consider all of the fabrication you'd have to do to secure the cell and seal it off from the cabin if mounted in the trunk.
