U buy C25 just like before. Looks like the new fuel won't be available until March and the old fuel is good until the end of 2012.

Probably a price increase.

I wonder if the reformulating of these fuels are more cost effective, in turn making the price drop for the racer?
Well never say never but as I have now learned is a good practice, ask to have the fuel tested before you fill that cell! Even if its brand new....

Or as Tim said....

VP gas has no shelf life if not left under a nitrogen charge. Cam2(Sunoco race gas) is a far better product.

That's likely closer to the truth ! Especially,for, from what I was told several different times, is timed out av gas, with some new ingredients thrown in, to liven it up again.
