Alcholol is a big pain to use, milking of the oil, hard staring when cold,stinks without additive and so on, the benifits are if you have to run race gas the alcholol setup will make the motor run cooler. One bad thing about alcholol is when there is a fire most people don't see the flames so there slow reacting to the fire  I dyno tested one of my motors, 11.7 to 1 comp. ratio on race gas and then on the local E85, it tested out to be E90 and the motor made one more HP and no more torque on the mix    More better make a pump gas motor and run it  
about the only thing I agree with there is the last sentance...
alky all the way for me. the added maintenance is a myth unless your a complete moron. Two factors that would push me towards gas, racing in colder climates, using lots of NOS. Most bracket motors do great on alky. When you get well over 600ci they seem to like gas better.
