So if you are running in a fuel class, what percentage of fuel do you have to run to be in the fuel class?

In other words, if you are running say 110 and you put 5% methanol, or even say 2% is that enough to be in the fuel class?

Also,

I know that ERC sells 110 on the salt, do they have other octane readings, such as 120 or 130?

TIA

Those who said it could not be done, should not stand in the way of those who are already doing it!

anything unsealed is fuel class , you don't need to add anything

oh and they have up to ~116 oct like the A8D thats gas compliant

By declaring that you're in fuel class -- you can be in fuel class.  No testing, no requirements, no gas class records.  If you've got a sealed tank from running in gas and elect to switch to a fuel class -- it's all paperwork and no more.  run with the tank sealed, visit impound, get your record certified in fuel class -- still wearing the gas class tank seal.

Check the ERC website on the fuel available.  And/or call Rick Gold -- he's a 24-karat (carat?) source.

I just talked with Rick last week - the Gasoline formulas that will be available this year are -

ERC 110K,  ERC A-8D (replaces a-8c on website), ERC A-19A, and unleaded ERC MUL/B

In fuel class, if it burns or explodes, you can run it . . . at your own risk . . .

Everything below 75% nitro is still just parts wash. :-D

Above have said it all. When I worked with Dan, all I looked at was the form to see if I needed to check the seal in the gasoline classes or assist the competitor in adding gasoline and resealing the tank.. Good Luck
