This was not a race circuit with "3-4 footer and turning" as you said. It is not my fault that MTI and Skater brought knives to a gun fight THIS YEAR! Let's see what happens next year.

I don't need you to buy me drink. Greg Olson would be the appropriate party...let's not rain on his parade!

Come on- Its E-85 race gas, first off you should smell it, second cause it smells like nothing else, They cant even measure the octane, mainly cause the alcohol level is so high, I call it a cocktail mixed with race gas, oh and ya it cost about 9-10 bucks a gallon.

FYI - as pointed out by Dustin below, yes it is. I have been running E-85 for 3 years and also run Rocket Racing E-85 due to the availiability at LOTO. It is not $9 - $10 a gallon.

It also does not take 20psi of boost, actually less and when switching to E85, the boost increases 1-2psi due to the volume of fuel.

Ps- Dustin, what are the real HP #s on these motors, set up for shoot out?

"Wow wow, hold on. FYI- that is NOT i reapeat NOT the E-85 you buy at the pump"
"I never said it wouldn't run on pump E-85"
I like how you admit that you were wrong. "I really wasn't wrong" but ok" way to stay strong buddy!

AGAIN!!! Congtrats to Greg Olson / Eliminator Boats / GT Performance / Whipple for an incredible 192 pass in a center pod boat to fully secure the TOP GUN title for Shootout 2012!!!
