For me methanol works great. It's deadly consistant. There are some good ideas above. I use a Pro Systems SV-1 and thier special regulator. I really like it.I also use a lean out valve to help build heat. Methanol and E-95 can be hard to start if the temp is below about 40*.I've sprayed carb cleaner through the lean out to help cold weather starting.I also like to spray fogging oil in the lean out valve after a race to keep corrison down on the cyl walls.Vacuum pump and warm engine temps also help.I like to use a gapless top ring to help keep the oil a bit cleaner. You might also search alky,alcohol or methanol here,dragraceresults.com and yellowbullet.com. There is lots of helpful info around.Good Luck!
