Default Re: After a heads up run

The cool thing about this forum is that I am learning more about how to cheat than I knew was possible. Sounds like fun....

My understanding that the reason we keep our hand over the fuel cup is that the sun could have an effect on it during that 40 foot walk from the car to the tester. Seems kinda dumb but I'm ignant so I can say this kind of stuff.

Does anybody know what kind of advantage in terms of ET an illegal fuel has vs. a legal fuel.(because I don't). In other words, what is the risk/reward of that type of cheating. I'm too fat to hide nitrous in my jacket so I need some fresh ideas.

I cover the cup with a rag so i don't spill fuel.

One purpose for covering the cup is to contain the light ends that evaporate from the fuel when exposed to atmosphere. [https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/ar...oline-it-ages/

Put a cup of race fuel in the sun and see how long it takes to totally evaporate. Ever notice when you spill race fuel on the ground, it's gone about as quick as it hits the ground.

Grape the risk is facing yourself in the reflection glass in the morning if you crossed the line.
