Never heard of them.
But reading the MSDS for a couple of their products , they seem to be familiar.
They have lots of different blends and the goodies they contain are found in all the race gas I have bothered to read up on.
They make some bold claims for their additive.........pump premium to 102 octane sounds too good to be true.............especially considering the generally poor quality of pump gas around here.
Price would be the big question now.
With the stuff that goes into race gas , you can't hardly blame Libya for the insane prices I have seen lately.

It is 420 / 55gal drum for 110 at the place I checked. I may try 5 gallon first then if it is decent go to 55 gal drums.

$ 7.636 a gallon in the drum ?
That sounds like pump prices or worse.
Maybe I gotta get out more , but that seems on the high side of the scale.
I was getting leaded 110 for a little less than that at the pump last summer. ( B-32 or TT 111 and the occasional Turbo Blue )

I have always been told NEVER buy Race fuel out of the pump. I only buy it by the drum.

If it is from a reputable dealer,you should be okay.It is at the local gas stations that you can run into problems.Several stations around here sell "race gas" in the summer,and kerosene in the winter,out of the same pump.How much kerosene remains at the bottom of the underground tank after they pump it out and add race fuel?I can tell you fist hand that when my regular supplier (I use VP) ran out,and I bought some fuel from the local station,it was garbage.It did not even smell right.Car ran like crap and the fuel had to still have kerosene mixed in with it.Never again.I had 15 gallons of it in my car and fuel jugs and was at our track's team finals trying to figure it out and it cost me more than one round of racing.Rant over

I'm extremely interested in their additive product. If it's any good, they may have a winner for all us guys who like to run some compression on the street yet don't want to be chained to our garage/fuel drum. S/F....Ken M
