Methanol is a better race fuel than gas despite having less than half the energy per gram. Fuel/air ratio along with the compression it can safely take makes it produce more power. If power was just based on heats of combustion, I'd be running my truck on McDonalds.

hahaha. Interesting idea. Never thought about trying to put a happy meal in my tank.
