Fuel check question

There is nothing wrong with Sunoco Race fuel.
Purple can be a little inconsistent due to wide tolerance in processing. Blue and up are very consistent in production.

Some say other brand fuel is faster but that depends on number of things.

Have run Sunoco purple in my cars for years, blue last season becuase of ease of availability to me and cost. Have had issues with fuel check on and off for years. Had a big deal at Englishtown points meet 2011 have had enough of that.

As I said the fuel is good, the culprit is how the fuel is handled before getting in the hands of the racer. It's not a national problem.

The safe way is to install a fuel cell (PIA), buy fresh fuel at the track when racing NHRA. If the fuel being sold during the race is bad it's not the racers' problem.
