Anyone ever run VP101

[esacteksab]

In the middle of the summer, it can get over 100* ambient and track temp is near 150*. Car is down 4MPH. As much as I'd love to run E85, the only local station is going the way of the dodo bird so it's not an option...but I can get VP101 out of the pump from a station about 35 miles from home. Also, every place that sells VP/Renegade, will not sell E85 (even if I purchased >55 galls).

So...thoughts? Anyone done it? It's an unleaded, C.A.R.B legal (though I don't live in CA) fuel, so I expect it to be kind to O2 sensors.

I run 93 and VP Octanium. It seems to help a little

Sucks about your E85 station. That's perfect for the hot conditions you describe.

We have a vp101 pump close and i've run it for extra track day protection.

When it warms up, I'm thinking about making a run for the border with a couple of empty barrels...but with this being so close. $5/gal isn't horrible all things considered.

As the saying goes, race gas is cheaper than pistons.
