It is well known around the Stock and SS community that certain "additives" have been used over the past few years that were not detected during fuel check. Well, now they are being detected. I think this pretty much sums it up.
So not "propylene oxide" - LMAO

Smells to much like propylene oxide to use

Anything will pass fuel check, if the guy gives NHRA a sample that did not come from his fuel cel, but from a bottle he keeps stashed under the hood just for fuel checks.

It was always a practice that the pro stock car and bikes were to come to the back of staging with a dry cell where the were all filled from the same drum, has that changed? Some of us older racers remember the days with erc and other stuff that was out there, some pro teams ran European f1 stuff that was 60$ a gallon back in the day, that why we now have fuel checks, Tom

Alex, it appears the Cajun's have lost their edge...the latest poll shows that the Yankees are drinking more than the South!
