Octane Race and AV Gas?
I've heard it said "race gas" does not make "more power". I've also heard it said, it DOES!
Assuming you have ENOUGH octane to keep detonation and pre-ignition from occuring WHY would you use more? Only reason gotta be "more power" I would think.
I'm pitting for a new FF team, "we" are still working out the details and bugs. The 1600cc iron head engine is 9.5 to 1 C.R. The other teams are using 108, 110 octane, some are using AV Gas. One guy is using 103 octane. I'm thinking the 103 octane guy is onto something!! With only 9.5 to 1 C.R. why wouldn't 92 octane pump gas do the trick?
And whats the deal with AV gas anyway? I've heard you should NOT use it in a car. WHY is that?
