Cause alky gives you a ton more low end. There is a dramatic difference in torque between a gas ported motor and a alky motor.

the AV fuel seems to work great for me...... and it costs about $2.80 a gallon here.... on the ground the 100LL is actually in the 120 octane range so i have heard.....

what are you running????

oh and for a 1/8th mile oval...... your gonna need a more midrange engine....

talk to jim..... he can set you in the right direction..... he does alot of flattrack motors.... my 12 port 4mm setup is actually a flattrack style engine.... but more for 3/8 mile oval..... a 1/8th mile oval is gonna be tough on a banshee.....

Higher Quality ..... like going from Mitsubishi to a Chevy

VP and Sunoco are the best race fuels you can buy

Really where? When is the last time you bought it for that, and are you absolutely sure its VP, because I live about 5min from the midwest VP distributor which most likely supplies whatever store your purchasing from since your in OK. Ill tell you they dont sell anything for less than 6.00 a gallon except methanol. I know they do not give breaks either because the guy I try to buy from is a dealer for several types of fuel and he charges 7 something for 110 octane leaded C12, and 4.50 for the Power 110 which is every bit as good in my opinion.
