Do some simple math... Lets say your getting 23 mpg in the city.
You should be able to travel 115 miles on 5 gallons
115 miles at 50 miles per hour would take 2.5 hours

Doesnt neccesarily burn the same, its the rate at which it is injected into the engine... That is what directly effects how long it will last, which remains unchanged unless you are using a standalone that automatically adjusts to a target air fuel, which i doubt you are... So the answer is yes, it will last the same as the pump gas....

And how much is race gas going for these days per gallon? A honda civic tank is what 9-10 gallons? and usually last about 3-400 miles on normal gasoline with normal driving conditions.
