Probably a price increase.

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.

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....

Is there any reluctance at the fuel check by NHRA to pass non VP fuels ??? I used Rocket for a while and it seemed they wanted to moan and groan a little or was it my imagination ???
