Where I race you can only use approved fuel containers. No homemade ones allowed.

a lot of the racers use a milk jug. I know its ghetto but you can crush the jug and it makes fueling fast. but it is only one extra gallon.

I use a windshield washer bottle with a hole drilled in the handel when I race long races. To prevent gas from spilling I Just wrap the handle in duct tape and when someone dumps it for me they rip the tape off.

Get a 5 gallon race jug. Cut the top off and put a pvc pipe in with a T fitting. On the T put a 90degree elbow pointed to the bottom of the jug. Get a butterfly valve that can be turned off/on with your hand. Run a pipe from the elbow to the bottom of the container (this is for air). Water seal all fittings and your done.
