Some good info in this thread and some not so good. You DO NOT need to empty your tank when switching, just run it low, and fill up with the other type of fuel. If your tuner knows what he is doing, then the summer/winter blend issue is moot. I race on winter blend probably 3-4 times per year, never had an issue.
It is ABSOLUTELY worth if for anybody that has access to the fuel, even if you are bone stock. The mileage is a little bit lower, but the additional power makes it a no brainer. E85 is the good stuff!!

You are supposed to look at the seasonal chart near the bottom...it tells you what class ethanol your particual area caries during a certain month of the year...
E85 Class 1
E78 Class 2
E70 Class 3
These are just minimal ratings, your particual area could possibly be higher.
Could be true due to e85 needing more fuel, and it running lean...I've filled up as soon as the light came on and have a wideband and monitored, but as long as your drive conservative it won't go boom...I did do a little tuning after filling up on my first tank after e85 and did notice that it was about half a point too lean...
And just a side note...when the gas light comes on don't freak out the gauge can go all the way past the e mark and you'll still have about half a gallon left...you know the last little hash mark.
