The strip is 1/4 mile long,so if you do 10 runs that will be 4 miles

Assuming you drive along thr return road, I'll say it's approx 1/4 mile back. hence 5 miles = 10 runs. What about braking distance

Shell is only a couple of miles down the road so regular fillups are no probs. |

What about braking distance Indeed, but braking is usually on the over-run, so not muche fuel used... As commented though - the petrol station in the village sells Optimax! Very usefull.
