Can anyone comment if IHRA does fuel checks at the Nitro Jam / tournament of champions qualifies?

Thanks

They use the same equipment that NHRA uses as far as I know.

I know they checked fuel at Martin last year.

Checked fuel at grandbend nitrojam but not at Pittsburgh T O C race or divisionals

Anyone know where one of these instruments can be purchased and what are the parameters (specifications) being checked?

Thanks for the replys everyone.

I have been running pump gas in my Pure Stocker, but have heard that it usually doesn't pass fuel check....(pure stocker is allowed pump gas...)

So i have been debating getting race fuel, but there are no sources close by except Sunoco from the pump at a local gas station. kind of worried about that passing also...

Any Pure Stock racers have experience try to use pump gas at fuel check?

Thanks again,
Mike

NO...

There was discussion on the Pure Stock Thread a while back.

If you run Pure Stock..NO FUEL CHECK !!

IHRA uses the very same fuel check specs and procedures that NHRA does.
There's a very good source for race fuel in MI . Call Miles Petroleum . They have dealers all over the state .
