It's all about whether or not your plan on bringing a drum to the track with you.

Along with the proper licensing to do so.

heh aren't you running a low compression motor? (not that important) I didn't -just- mean you, just pointing out too there are lots of grey area laws we all regularly break.

so you rather pay $8 for 100 octane race gas vs. $2.59 for E85 (even factor in lower mpg, it is still ~$3.35/gallon).

E85 also smells much better !!! whereas race gas burns my eye.

with 444whp on 1,000cc injectors, you are maxed on duty cycle.

yeah personally I'll pay $10/g not to have to bring it to the track

part of why I run the leaded gas tho. no road taxes either so its usually the same price as 100 but extra knock protection.
