Message	You can add some ethanol, like 10%, to your tank for your races. You can get them as denatured alcohol at hardware stores for $7-8/gallon. It will up your fuel octane and burn much slower so you can advance your timing as well. Just make sure to run richer if you have SAFC or AFR. That's pretty good sub for race gas. www.ztechz.net ICQ # 14337317
