Default Thoughts/Ideas......I need to get rid of some gas.......

I have a full tank right now, and I know it's not THAT big of a deal but I just want everything to be in it's best form for a trackday tomorrow.

And no, i can't really just go out and drive it around for a while. What would be the most ideal way of pumping some gas out of the system ? Any quick and simple ideas ?

Thanks guys, btw - it's a 99 civic si

Syphon it out into gas tanks so you can reuse it after you get back from the track.

drain it from the return on your pressure regulator on the fuel rail.

Undo the hose, hook a hose/line that goes to where you want to drain it to the regulator, start the car and watch the fuel level
