Frank, Bubski should do a big reveal and let us know who he is. Talk normal stop acting like and ***. Maybe his post would get some respect. He has had some valid points. Not all but some. A few years back I had two brothers now retired from stock tell me they used a company in NJ that blended fuel that was better than VP and would pass off as VP. They each had their own car. They seemed to disappear from the stock scene. At Indy one year one of their cars was picked for the barn. To their surprise they asked for a piston and rod. One of the brothers told me they were not going to pass. I laughed to myself because I already knew that. His car sounded more like a comp car in the water box. Without saying their names he had a gorgeous corvette. Indy this year if you had a dry ice stand you could have made a bunch of money. I saw more dry ice going into fuel cells than I have ever seen there. BP |

The cool thing about this forum is that I am learning more about how to cheat than I knew was possible. Sounds like fun....
My understanding that the reason we keep our hand over the fuel cup is that the sun could have an effect on it during that 40 foot walk from the car to the tester. Seems kinda dumb but I'm ignant so I can say this kind of stuff. Does anybody know what kind of advantage in terms of ET an illegal fuel has vs. a legal fuel.(because I don't). In other words, what is the risk/reward of that type of cheating. I'm too fat to hide nitrous in my jacket so I need some fresh ideas. |

One purpose for covering the cup is to contain the light ends that evaporate from the fuel when exposed to atmosphere. [https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/ar...oline-it-ages/

Grape the risk is facing yourself in the reflection glass in the morning if you crossed the line.

A company named ERC used to make a fuel called C25 clone. Was supposed to be worth Hp and passed the field test as C25.
A racer that I knew as a kid ( long retired ) that used to blend his own fuel and dye it to look like Sunoco. He could also adjust how it checked to get it in line with the fuel he was claiming. Again, it passed the field test, not a lab test. Do they even do the lab test anymore? Last edited by Todd Hoven; 09-28-2022 at 07:56 PM. |
