VP racing fuel

I wasn't asking if the fuel would make me any faster. I was just asking what VP would be suggested. Having a better controlled fuel like VP has to be better then pump gas. You never know exactly what your going to get from the pump. I understand people have much success using pump gas but I personally wanted to try a VP fuel.

It’s not worth the money unless you and everyone you are racing has highly modified 510cc engines, and your competition is running oxygenated fuel…. But even still… there is only so much power you can stick to the ground….spend the extra cash on cornerspeed. 91 would still be choice fuel in that scenario unless you were experiencing detonation.
 
I know I am very new to this site. However, I have quite a bit of experience with different fuels from my ATV dirt drag racing. If you make the switch to VP fuels and want the most potent fuel. I have gained to most power using MR12. As long as you are tuned for it, you will make more power even over Methanol. MR12 is also pretty much the most expensive fuel as well so you better have deep pockets.
 
I was able to run the engine a couple weeks ago on C12 and was very impressed with how smooth and responsive the throttle was. Plus the smell is an added bonus!!!! No more cylinder wash down like I was experiencing with methanol either.....
 
try c12 50/50 with a mid grade pump gas back in the day i used amoco silver. that was from my engine builder on my yamaha kt100 it was and is now desieste PETE MICHAEL he told me straight c12 was 2 much octane and would with the compression of a stock yamaha cause detonation.
 
Race gas will be a lot more consistent . City gas has 10% Ethanol in it and winter blend has just came out , Pump gas is very inconsistent . Low octane race gas may be your best answer . High octane has less BTU . If you don't have a lot of compression and timing , save the money .
I'm a gas Hauler I know how many different places I load at .
 
I tried to run 93 octane in my PK 250 and I was blowing head gasket left and right I switched to c14 I’ve not problem since
But $100 for 5 gallons is rough on the wallet is there something else I could run
 
Low lead 100 from you local airport. Cheaper than any racing fuel, same basic beginning mixture prior to creating racing fuel, and better than pump gas. Not sure about the price now, but it was 4.25 last time I bought it.
