Easiest way to drain gas tank?

I filled up my tank today without thinking about my trip to the track on Wednesday afternoon. What's the easiest way to drain 15-20 gallons into my gas cans after work one day?

I need to do the same thing.

I would think you could disconnect the fuel line before the filter, hook a fuel hose to it with a clamp. Then put the other end into another vehicles gas tank, and turn your key on.

Not sure it this will work, but that's what i would try.
