Many fuel check issues with SR118. Maybe others as well.

Many very experience racers who knew enough to flush entire system and did not have foam in tank failed.

Corporate SUNOCO guy told me he went to fuel check and asked them to "relax".

One sample directly from their can failed. Some cars tried after multiple runs - figuring they would get it right - they did not.

Of course this is only information from someone who was there (me). I was told to ask Stevie Wann - could not find him before I left yesterday - I will try again today.

It is cheaper but does not pass fuel check yet

Finally - a very respected racer told me it makes less power on the dyno than C25 - most comp guys are not going to use it even when it is authorized by NHRA.

I guess pro stock is using it but who knows.

We will stay with C25 for now,
