Also C-11 is not always available at the track. Then I have to drain the fuel cell and use a different fuel. I guess I am still better off buying fuel in smaller quantities at the events that have C-11.
Mike, how long before you run out? And, will it still pass check? Just curious

BTW I bought VP-110 at PBIR for $9 a gal. last month, $11 per gal for C-12 in Lakeland back in June.
