Sunoco people say they have given NHRA new numbers to use,but they have not updated the charts yet.So who knows.Some racers are using blue,which is not that more expensive per drum.

There is nothing wrong with Sunoco race fuel.Seems every race the last year or so,they tell you it is bad or borderline bad.Hopefully Sunoco can fix this issue with NHRA soon.I believe the charts need to be "updated".

What could possibly be wrong with the fuel? Too much octane? Do you have to run ''track'' fuel? Or, can you come in with your own ''110 octane'', and pass?

Had problems out west here at the recent Div 6 divisional. 110 Purple checked "on the bottom" but came up 1 step up with no changes or fresh fuel added later in the day as the temps warmed. Always have had trouble at west coast divisional/nationals with Sunoco 110 whether from pump or barrel. "ITS FLAT" is the usual reply when checked. Lately got recommendations to switch to 112 as it checks better. Will let you know!

VP is NHRA's favorite for whatever reason, all others beware!
