Sunoco fuel at Indy

Rsmith38 · 09-07-2015, 09:58 AM

I also found out VP C-9 was removed from the approved list at the Epping points meet - was legal last year but when I fuel checked it wasn't in the book? I checked with National tech the next week and found out that C-9 had been dropped because (Nobody was using it?) apparently several others had been using it last year. I don't find any Sunoco unleaded listed that I can use so I am back to VP C-10 I'm guessing that the Official Fuel supplier doesn't care if a competitor's fuel is dropped!

I brought Sunoco fuel and stored it in plastic containers that I purchased before the Gator Nats from a local gas station that has the fuel in the ground. The fuel passed fuel check twice at Indy. I have never had a problem with passing with the purple fuel as of yet. When I was at the PRI show back a few years ago, I asked the Sunoco rep. what was the shelf life. He said that it's good for 2 years.
