[KillJoy]

I am heading to the track here shortly. I want to bump things up a bit, so I am wanting to get a can of VP Race Fuel.

Which one should I get???

All assistance is appreciated.

Get the stuff made from refried beans you will get more gas for your buck.

Anything between 100 and 112 is fine.
Even leaded is fine, so long as its about 10 gallons or less.
Id put 10 gallons in on a near empty tank, then add 5 degrees of timing, set the rev limiter to 7 grand and let her rip.

My "Street" Tune and my "Race" Tune are both done on 94 Octane. The "Street" workds GREAT on 93. The "RACE" has 2*'s added. I was thinking about adding another 2* (all I can w/ the XCAL2, I think). I would like to get ahold of some 110, but....not sure about VP's fuel choices.

You said you have a Jegs down the street, go there.

[Pops]

Can you get it at the track Steve?

Jegs DOES NOT carry ANY Race Fuel :(


Can you get it at the track Steve?

Not sure if the Pumps are going to be on that day (Private Track Day).

It looks like I can get VP's C12:

I think your kid needs diapers :pooh:

[knine]

Shots fire.................ah, hell forget it. It's like a damn shooting range in here. :poke: "Fire at will" "Which one's Will?"

"THEY'RE ALL WILL" :gunfire:

Price seems about right for nowadays. I just paid $8.00 per gallon for Sunoco 100 Unleaded at the track the other day. 2 degrees timing? I don't know if you need to go all the way up to 110.

[Raudermaster]

Paul, I noticed you live in RI, not far from me. Which track did you go too? I know there's Epping up in NH, but I just wanted to make sure there wasn't a "secret" one around here I didn't know about lol.

When I'm home I go to Epping. Right now however, I'm working in Alabama, so I go to Huntsville Dragway. There's been rumors of a new one opening in Seakonk soon.

[Raudermaster]

Ahh I see. Yes, I've heard about that too. That would be excellent if that opens up. Take 20 minutes to get there instead of an hour or two.

At almost $12/gallon I think you need to bend over:eek:

Perhaps get some baseline runs with the current mods before kicking things up a notch.

just my two cents.

[KillJoy]

I guess there is some high test stuff at the track....they are working on having that available for the day...I am just wanting to make sure I have all of my bases covered :D

Baseline...HAHAHAHA!!!!! My car has NEVER been to the track :D I think I missed the Basline run a good long while ago :D

... so I am wanting to get a can of VP Race Fuel.

Which one should I get???

Motorhead350 is our expert on Race Fuel. ;)

My prediction:
You will spend too much on gas, then run too fast and be told to wear a helmet which you probably dont have, then spend the rest of your day beating the piss out of the car on the street (To take advantage of every molecule of race gas) then get pulled over for doing 30+ over, get your car impounded, spend the night in jail with Billy Bob (who you ultimately find attractive and run away with to a run down trailer on the side of a mountain in Kentucky somewhere, only to end up living back at Mom's with no Marauder, no Billy Bob, no Heather and a new Birth Certificate drawn up with your name not on it.
Yep, thats my prediction.

Interesting thoughts....

However....the club I am going with is doing the Tech ;)

They are being forgiving on SOME rules. Like DS Loops, Jackets and Helmets for mid-12's.

I'm good :D

KillJoy

[Pops]

Not that good!!!!!!!! Isaw you in action in Kentucky.

[Raudermaster]

LOL Zack. Oh also, you forgot a, ")" ending parenthesis. :D

[Vortech347]

IF you can try to avoid running leaded fuel. Just a few gallons is enough to murder your O2's. I've always just ran 100 octane unleaded sunco when going to the track in my stang.

[KillJoy]

Well, it looks like we are going to have Gas at the Track. Here is what is available:

The current prices are:
Methanol: $2.25 per gallon
Purple 110 grade: $5.50 per gallon
Blue 112 grade: $6.25 per gallon
