Anyone use it? Grandson bought a 55 gallon drum yesterday...It was the 110. He only races a dirt bike so I think he wants to dump the rest on me!!

Rocket Brand is a long time sponsor at drag week and Although I do not use race fuel a few of my friends from drag week use it and like it.

As I understand, Rocket Race Fuel is the original Torco Race Fuel owned by Evan Knoll.

Hmm, maybe.
But, I know a couple of guys involved used to be part of the engine lab at the Unocal research center out here before it got sold off to BP and then plowed under. They were then doing the Unocal 76 race gas stuff out of a separate location for a while.
Not sure if the engineer doing the formulations started Rockett and was bought out by the Illinois based group or what, not sure.
Last I heard, the tech line still goes to the second guy's house in Colorado where he moved when his wife retired.
Both guys were mopar guys though.
I know the second guy (Colorado) via my mom who worked with them and retired from Unocal, and then it turned out his wife worked for UPS, same as me.

I do know that one of the blenders for Evan Knoll is blending for Rocket.

We used the Rockett 110 in my brother's truck while at the track on Drag Week. Great stuff, and a nice group of guys.
11.2:1 508 with Edelbrock RPM heads.
