pretty much every "bigger" track will sell a lot of fuel. call their number and ask them if they sell methanol by the gallon. it shouldn't be more than $4-$5/gallon. and thats still pretty good.

our track sells every type of octane, including methanol and on some occasions, for the big boys, nitro

a 75/25 meth/water mix in a 1.5gallon tank would be 1.125/gal methanol and .125/gal of water

....i think

I'm having stupid issues with my car again, and it's really irritating me. I just replaced my MAF sensor on Saturday, after it threw so many maf codes on Friday that I could barely drive the car a few miles before the codes came back.

Then today, it kept throwing the same p0068 codes, with a brand new maf sensor. Then finally it throws, p1182, and I looked that up. Seems to be the SCIP sensor might be involved too. I'm going out later to clean the throttle body, see if that makes any difference.

I'm getting so pissed off with this car, I think I might be done with it.

60/40 to a 70/30 mixture depending on which fluid I bought.

If I bought Washer fluid I got -20* and it would end up being a 60/40 mix. I started using distilled water and HEET and got about a 70/30 mix.

Thats a little too much octane and you'll loose out on the cooling aspect of it that way.

Your not ***** out enough to require that much extra fuel mah friend!
