    Default Race Fuel, What Do You Run?

    hey guys im looking into continuing running race fuel in my 86 since it was built over in japan to run avgass, but since avgass is to hard to get latly i was looking into some fuels such as martini, elf etc

    so does any1 have any recomendations on a fuel to use witch isnt to expensive but is still does the job, since i will be using it quite often so i dont want to be spending a million dollers on fuel each time lol,

    so what do your run or no of?

    cheers

    i have often thought about this but because i cant be arsed bulking it up on 205LT's everytime i need fuel i figured 98RON is the way to go and just add more of it.

    i run a race fuel cell? have to fill up pretty often so i dont run out? means i end up with a bit of a mixed brew, i heard this can sometimes increase octane ratings? i reckon i had atleast 3 maybe 4 different types of fuel in my car the other week. lol.

    haha yeah i was just joking. my motor doesnt really need any special fuel. be nice if it did. and i could afford it.

    though to be honest if i was really serious, i would just go with the most easily attainable 98ron fuel for me, and then get it tuned for that. race fuel seems like its a bit of a PITA.

    the VP fuels seem to be popular. they come in a few different blends and different prices. C12,C14,C16.

    some of my friends back in the day ran shell 100 in their motorcross bikes, which might be an easier/cheaper option maybe?

    but really i have no idea.
