You have to run one of the fuels from NHRA's approved fuel list, check their website. With a low compression engine, any of the stock approved fuels will work, but it's best to stick with a brand that is sourced from a place convenient for you, and stick with it, sometimes the optimum jetting and fuel curve will differ if you switch brands. I prefer Rockett brand 111, it's cheaper that VP (which is always available at NHRA events), and I have never had a fuel check problem with it. The higher octane fuels have not shown any gain in my car.

Check for sources in your area (the local speed shops will know who they are), and purchase 5 gallon drums to carry if you don't want to use VP at the track. (By the way, VP sportsman fuel is not always available, but I have never had a problem finding C11 or C12)
