What are you guys using for race gas? Like a 50/50 mix with 91
Anyone using any of the race gas from AFD of 17th street in Edmonton?
The sleds running the fuel will be 2 M1100 turbos. One with the speedwerx 260 tuning and the other with Evo 260.

Any help would be appreciated. :beer::beer:

What kind of octane are you aiming for? That info is required to help out, but most guys run av gas, it's by far the most available and cheapest option.

We'll the race gas from AFD is easy for me to get since my shop is right near there. I used to run 50/50 Av gas with my Nytro but I think some race gas would be better. Price for gas doesn't really bother me.

If your not worried about price just curious to why you would mix with a pump fuel? There is some options for lower octane race fuels out there..

IMO the less I can take from a pump the better..

I hate mixing fuel so run 100% av gas, but if you insist then why not run 50/50 91 and fury 108?

I run c111 and shell 94 at 50/50 for 11lbs of boost in my viper, I was talking with the VP rep in calgary he has a new fuel called x100 that is 104 octane at the motor so no need to mix it, I think it was around 600$ of a 204L barrel

I use to run 50/50 mix in my Evo 260 but sled ran terrible, after the sled was warm from a few pulls would start popping and backfire. EVO says you can run a 50/50 mix with there 260 tune but never worked for me. I put straight AV gas in my sled now and have no issues. I highly recommend you do the same.
