The ET was some of the best the car would run in the fall on a well groomed track. The LM1 showed the motor was lean. We have rejetted and now waiting to hit the track again. If the MODS did their job I would not be hitting the notify MOD button. LOL

How was the weather on both days? It looks like the more fuel you put in, the quicker it goes. How is the sixty foot time? What air bleed changes did you make? 1993 Daytona, 5.50 at 130mph (1/8) 1.19 sixty ft (PG). Link to 572 B1 - Part 1

Several Krogers and H-E-B stations in Houston carry E85: http://www.e85refueling.com So it should be easy to fill a drum for a race car. If you want to convert your daily driver, than there may not be enough?

The biggest issue I had was getting the carbs converted and having to wait for the snow to melt to run them. The two carbs I have ran: On my roadrunner best et on 110 race gas 11.07 118 Best pass with E85 10.98 121. The biggest difference I have seen in it is that it ran the 10.98 in mineshaft air. Then the following weekend hot, humid and head wind still ran 11.11 at 118. I was really impressed. Car only lost .013 when everyone on gas was .3 slow. The stuff is killer consistent too. 2 weeks ago first run at 1PM last run at 10PM went 11.06 at 1PM 11.04 at 10PM. With my dragster best run on 110 race gas 9.05 144 E85 8.78 151 If you have any questions send me an email ajcasiniracing@hotmail.com or PM on here.

Being that the E-85 burns 30% more fuel over gas the only thing is that will your pump supply the added 30% with a cushion... so maybe 40 % more than when you run gas
