Looking at the final order, it appears Luneack got reinstated.

Good for Gregg! This fuel check bs is getting out of hand!!
Every time I have gone through fuel check this year with C-12 they give me the pucker faced look.

The DQ on the one qualifying sheet was a tower clerical error. He passed fuel check on the initial qualifying runs, had an issue in the class run.

i agree with the fuel check how bogus can this fuel really be? even when vp is the official fuel of nhra. ive had all kinds of issues with vp c12. i like the fuel it works good but if it does not pass its no good to me . thats why i switched and have not had any problems since. and it is cheaper and runs the same.

I`ve never had a problem with Sunoco Purple,even after sitting in the tank all winter.

We have had some very slight issues with C-12. Neither car has been tossed, but we have been told it read marginal. Normally, adding some fresh C-12 resolves the issue. Each time it has happened we've been told that it has gone somewhat "stale" from being exposed to the atmosphere (in a vented fuel cell between races mostly). We now usually drain both cells down to about what we need to load the cars and unload them later. Then we just add fresh C-12 before time trials. I guess C-12 is somewhat sensitive. But I like the results I get with it, so long as I don't have worse issues, or need more octane, we'll stick with it.

Has anyone ever smelled bad gas?

Same here.

With regard to the people who have already replied to this thread: What engines do you guys run? I know the C-11 is better than C-12 for our small block (more power on dyno), and it burns cleaner. Never have had a problem with C-11, and we start the year with what's left in the trailer. It usually sits awhile and goes through the winter outside.
