I have run it before with no problems. I just add a little marvel mystery oil. I just hear people back and forth about the pros and cons of it. High altitude, low rpm blah blah blah. There is a website that sells race gas and of course they tell you how bad av gas is
I had done a search for av gas on moparts and there was a post talking about dyno results of av gas and race gas, but I couldn't read the post

Drum in the bed of the truck. Use a barrel clamp and overhead hoist to pick it up, and then drive out from under it.

I run 93 it is around $3.40 at the moment. I bought some 110 a couple of years ago at the track and it was $9.00. That is why I went with a pump gas motor.
Wow, cause we are paying $3.48 a gal for 87 pump swill up here in the north. 110 is $7 and C-16 is running around $13

don't know my local race fuel price, but I did find a new race fuel called RENEGADE. they claim to be every bit as good as VP, but with better pricing. 95 octane unleaded 5gal for $38 and the Rat man 108oct. oxygenated for $48/5gal. pal. that's about $25 less per pal compared to VP. anyone here ever use Renegade race fuel?
A local speed shop sells Renegade 16 from a 55 gal drum. Costs about $12 a gallon. Red instead of VP blue.
