C-11

[jmantle]

I've had issues over the years, usually in the morning after first pass when the fuel is still cold. Failed fuel check after first pass one time, left everything alone and it passed after second pass. A fellow racer told me to leave on the manifold to warm up for a few minutes before taking it up, seems to help. I've since switched to only buying the small barrels so it doesn't sit around so long.

When I asked what he meant, I was told the fuel is borderline dead. I then took the container to fuel check the next morning and was told it was no good. I then opened a sealed 5-gallon container at fuel check and had that checked. I was told the fuel out of the new sealed container was worse and did not pass. The date on the sealed container and the already open container was March 2020. I have been told the fuel has a 3 year shelf life in the sealed 5-gallon containers. Not sure how much truth there is to this? After scrambling for fuel, I ended up having to put C-25 in the car for the SportsNats. The C-25 was in a plastic jug out of a 55-Gallon drum. The C-25 passed fine. Not sure if anyone else has had similar issues with C-11?

ALWAYS run C-11 Never once had a problem in Div 3 and bought it in 5 gallon cans from Atlanta to Joliet no issues
