This weekand, Tommy let me use his E 85 carb and I went to US41 to try it out. I like how it runs cooler, I like the 10th I pick up. I am going to make the switch before Norwalk.
The car ran

10.13 @ 130 1.35-60ft
10.14 @ 131 1.36-60ft
10.14 @ 131 1.37-60ft

then I had an issue with the carb going WOT, I was bending the throttle bracket. I am going to fix that and try to get the car to run 10.05 to 10.10

E 85 is the hot ticket.

about 10*-15* cool, But its the time it takes to get to 190*, I can sit in stageing lanes with the motor running and not worry about getting too hot before a pass. ya the cheap part is cool.
E85 was $2.05 in town

Great to hear and it's $2.39 here but better than 13 dollars a gallon I pay now. I cant wait to use it.

E85 is a great race fuel. Its economical, cooler and more consistent. I love the stuff. The carbs I have done are all running well and winning.

I want to convert my high compression wedge over to E85. Seeing these kind of results makes me want to do it sooner rather than later.

On a normal 4150 conversion you are looking at 350-400.

The only thing I dont like, is it runs fat when on the intermediate circuit when driving back on the return road, I wish I can go with a two circuit E85 carb, all E85 kits for Doms are three circuit.

C&S Specialties did a carb for us. It was around $250.00 on a 2 circuit dominator. It was off maybe 3 jet sizes when we got it back.... Roger is the man

John is right I do the carbs for that price. There are several others out there that do them as well around that price.

There are also some DIY kits out there that will work for the 4150 and Doms. The 4150 is a little trickier as to make the carb work best on E85 a booster change is normally needed.

If anyone has questions pm me or email at ajcasiniracing@hotmail.com

John I do not watch the weather normally when I am running normal brackets at PRP. However I do notice that the humidity seems to affect my ET the most. If the humidity goes up the car slows down.
