  • Fastest local pump gas (93oct) + fuel additive cars?

    Disclaimer: I'm sure I'm nowhere close.

    My goal for next season is .70's (and possibly a .6x) on 93.

    So I'm wondering how fast local cars are going on true pump gas (no e85, Shell URT, or race gas).

    I don't see many pump gas cars at the track so I really have no idea.

      you are right, but it is a small amount of water/meth through a single nozzle (went through less then a gallon all season) mainly to keep IAT's and injector duty lower (doubt I'm getting much of an octane boost).

        Meth injection? So your not on true pump gas Playa.

        E85 is "true pump gas" its at gas stations.

            6.33 on a 9.98 was my best on 93 at 3300lbs. Going through the motor now, getting rid of my canfield heads and getting some renegade AFR's so I'm hoping to be all over the .99-6.0 range on the same shot. We'll see.

              Boosted runs on pump right ?

              I'm not educated enough to debate about meth pros and cons with pump.

              In 2006 I went 5.60's on pump at 123 (5.59 once)That was 6 years ago.... Street driven car on a foot brake.

                ethanol is an alcohol not gas. we can argue the point, but pump gas means you can fill up at ANY gas station, never worry about range, mixtures, etc.

                  I'll agree with you as far as pump gasoline, but E85 comes from the same place. A gas station.

                    i think boosted is on race gas (albeit his car will run on pump, but i don't think he races it that way).

                      there are more places to get methanol then ethanol in dallas.

                            if you go through less then a gallon of a $3 fuel in a years time, tons of passes, and 2k miles i don't consider it what your car runs on.

                              We should race James, pump gas, power adder to power adder. I don't think I can run 5.80's but I'd be close.
