Better be correct with your timing/jetting. We burned a motor up on the dyno trying it out. We thought that we were safe. We weren't. You might try Q16 instead.

Most of the racing organizations I know of flat outlaw that stuff Several years ago(10 to 20 ) Klotz was using it in some of there NHRA approved legal racing gasoline, some one caught on and raised a beef, no more after that. It made a lot of the plastic fuel cells unusable due to leaving a traceable residue in them, which would not clean out no matter what the guys did that had them and what they tried to remove the residue I have a three gallon one from a old race car, you can still smell the residue in it, bracket racers usually don't get fuel checked


Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964. (Old F--t, Huh)

i have run it in a racing go-cart. it works! dirt trackers probably are still running it. i have run methanol, nitromethane, and prop. all at the same time. as you might guess, i did win.
