An... interesting round. We hit our predicted high, 92.6 degrees, and the barometer has fallen a few, but the wind turned tail, leading to a small pickup for some. The fun started at fuel check. None of the Marshall's fuel that was fine at Bristol would pass here: several jugs. I had completely drained and flushed my system yesterday and bought 10 gal of fresh at the local track. Come to find out out, it's not VP Sportsman, C-16, Sunoco Blue or anything else. The VP guy explained that the bracket tracks get some kind of formulation they make that's close to Sunoco Blue, but it doesn't check as anything. Drained and flushed everything ($) again, and filled it with C-11. Took the car back down and checked it again. "You got it as close as it gets" the official said. So, lesson learned about buying fuel.

Years ago, I discovered that they'll sell you "Sunoco Blue" with a straight face, but it was actually Turbo Blue.
