Tampering with fuel

It may be a warning to both Pro Stock and Comp Eliminator.
The NHRA mandated Sunoco SR-18 fuel has been a nightmare for both classes.
NHRA will not give the option to Comp to still use the VP C-25 fuel while others in Comp can use any of the approved fuels.

Maybe there are fuel additives people have been using for a few years now that they finally have a way of checking for???

Go to insidecompracing.com and read about the fuel issues with the Sunoco fuel.

That's what I was thinking Bryan. Sounds like it might be multiple issues here.

It's gotta be the Cajuns. They are always carrying around questionable liquids.

They drink most of them.

I heard from a fellow racer that when an oxygenator is detected in a fuel, NHRA tech is telling the user of that fuel to "not use it again!"

In Charlotte at the 4 Wides, two different devices were used to check my fuel during qualifying. When I asked what they were checking for with the new device, they would not give me an answer. Well, now I know what they are checking for.......oxygenators.

It is well known around the Stock and SS community that certain "additives" have been used over the past few years that were not detected during fuel check. Well, now they are being detected. I think this pretty much sums it up.

Alex, it appears the Cajun's have lost their edge...the latest poll shows that the Yankees are drinking more than the South!
