Chuck says......sunny and 54 degrees for saturday!

That's perfect for drag racing... Those low temps are great for power, but traction may be an issue. I'm loadin' the Vic on the trailer tomarrow night and I'll be all set to go for SAT. :up:
 
Fuel Question

I am planning on going to Milan tomorrow. There is a Sunoco Station that sells a 110 octane racing fuel close to my place of business. I was thinking of purchasing a gallon or two and mix it with the Sunoco 94 octane. There are warnings all over the pump about problems that this can cause. Looking for your opinions.......
 
I'm coming as a spectator. So, I expect to be entertained! I want to see some fast times.

Howdy...are you sure its 110 octane? I know that sunoco makes the gt100 unleaded, and 104 as well. You should call Lidio on weather or not it would help a stock engine at the strip. I honestly dont know. Call him at 586-463-0010 and tell him you are from the marauder forum.

Yes, 110! It is called Blue Max or something like that. I will have to go back and read all of the written warnings but it really cautions using it in engines that are not "race prepared" - additionally it states that it is for off-road (read race)vehicles only.

I am bringing my digital camcorder. I may post some pics and movies if there are good ones. My 16 daughter is coming and racing the MM also.
 
110 is really good for a high compression engine, you probably won't see much difference in power, if any. Some have said that there performance decreased on a stock engine when runninhg 110. Also, it is not a good idea if you have catalytic converters on your car, the lead deposits tend to clog them up. Of course, I am assuming it is a leaded fuel... I have yet to see 110 octane that is unleaded. Also, they won't let you pumpo it into the car... GAS CANS ONLY.

Dam'n. I want to be three places at one time! I will sleep on it. :bigcry:

Lowell, you know what to do! Lidio and I are dying to put his latest tune to the strip. My car has never run so good...its freaky fast now..... And I think its not far off that Lidio will easily be into the high 11 second range...
 
If he runs an 11 then he'd better make it the last run of the day. That would be cool none the less. If he ever comes East he better have a roll bar because he'll have an 11 for sure. Doesn't the great air in the East coast make you West coast guys sick? :rasta:

At Milan you only need a roll bar if your car is 10.99 or faster, so he can run all day in the 11's.

I'm pulling out i about a half hour, see you all there.
