Ethanol fuel primarily made from corn, not normally sold at any regular station. At least not around here. Octane is a bit higher than premium unleaded fuel. My basic understanding of it. I will learn more when it becomes easily available up here.

I've never been to pacific raceways. How do I register? My car is full stock without a tune. I'd like to see its stock drag times before I put some parts on it. What are the times for stock evos in Seattle?

Ethonal is alchol corn.., it made from Corn.. it cheap like 3 bucks.. and u need bigger fuel injector and some safety hose.. snice ethonl will eat rubber and etc. i think so.. and retuned ecu to for E85 to E98

E85 is 85% ethonl and 15% gasoline mixed.
E98 is 98%ethonl and 2% gasoline mixed

many ratios..

When you by e98 you can start to mix your own and use your choice of gas.
Depending on composition and source, E85 has an octane rating of 100 - 105[4] compared to regular gasoline's typical rating of 87 - 93. This allows it to be used in higher compression engines which tend to produce more power per unit of displacement than their gasoline counterparts. Since the reciprocating mass of the engine increases in proportion to the displacement of the engine E85 has a higher potential efficiency for an engine of equal power.

That is from Wikipedia

Confirmed August 6th for sure! Probably not on the 30th of July. I can only make one day because on the 8th 9th and 10th of August me and my dad are competeing in the state finals for SCCA with our CRX and my evo. To give you guys an update my Evo is getting tuned on the 16th of this month by VE Tuning in Fort Collins, CO on the new AEM EMS for 91 and METH. Also a C16 and a little meth tune. Can't wait. Give you guys some numbers as soon as I have them. We are going to tune drivability and idle on the street then WOT and the race gas on a Mustang Dyno. I'll let you guys know. And hanahawaiian get that wicked white machine going! I want to see a nice IX. I've never seen a nice fixed up one in person. I'm sheltered!

Billy it really depends on who is teching that day and if your windows are tinted or not. There are pretty laxed most of the time.

I have teched midgets car there when he ran an 11.5 and they never asked to see under the hood or a helmet. Hell the only part of the tech card i had filled out was name, state.
