Default FUEL HELP V.P. vs. DRAGON

I ordered a drum of VP C-11, and they sent the wrong fuel. I can get
locally Dragon 112 and I am racing this weekend. Anybody have any experience? Jetting, timing, etc. changes?

I hope you were able to get your tuneup worked out. As you know, the 2 fuel blends are very different. Jetting changes would certainly be required. The Renegade Pro Crate 108, wouldn't have required any changes.

I didn't see where the Pro-Crate 108 was NHRA accepted, is there a
different place I should be looking? J.R.

No, it hasn't yet been submitted for acceptance with NHRA. And the racers who have compared the 2 fuels are constantly asking us to.

It always amazes me how when someone asks a specific question, about a concern they are having, someone will provide an answer that has nothing to do with the original question. How is offering a fuel brand that isn't legal for his combo going to help him with his concern about racing this weekend?

There is no fuel even close to C11 in my car. VP C11 is the fastest period. I pray NHRA allows VP back on the property. Sunoco can be the official fuel as long as we can get C11

I agree! I hate having to buy C11 here, and haul it to the races in my trailer. Not very safe. Sunoco helps slow the car down for "bracket mode", but when I tried to run it, I had problems getting past fuel check at times.
