Sunoco supreme
race fuel, i have been using this fuel for some time but need to know if there are any other fuels that can help pick up the ET a little more.I am pretty close to the index at 10.55 but have not tried any other fuels to see if they help (mostly because of the expense)but if there are any that has used Sunoco supreme and pick up ET using other fuels i will sure try it.

Re: Sunoco supreme
To be honest we did not see any difference between the Sunoco Standard 110 Octane @ $6.58 a gallon and VP 110 @ 12.00 a gallon. If you look at a chart that contains all of the fuel attributes that are legal for NHRA racing fuels for stock/super stock, I don't see a whole lot of difference.

Re: Sunoco supreme
You might try VP C11, you will probably have to fatten it up a bit. My car prefers that over Sunoco.

Re: Sunoco supreme
Sunoco Supreme & C12 are close to one another in preformance....C11 MAY pick the car up....it will want less timing then Sunoco.

Re: Sunoco supreme
We use Sunoco purple in both cars. Found Sunoco blue and C11 & 12 just to cost more.

Re: Sunoco supreme
I ran C-11 last year. I run Sunoco Purple now. My car seemed to fire better on the C-11, but runs the same on the Sunoco. Half the price to boot.

Re: Sunoco supreme
Sunoco Purple also seems to be one of the more "stable" fuels. Never had a problem with it in fuel check.

Re: Sunoco supreme
I absolutely agree with that. I`ve had 10 gallons in my stock gas tank all winter and have it pass the first race out. Also curious what some of you are paying for it.

Re: Sunoco supreme
hell the fastest pass my I/SA camaro has run was on 93 octane pump gas. Have run both C12 and sonoco supreme, don't really see a difference.
