430+hp 340 possibilities

I agree. But…. It honestly doesn’t really seem to fit the thread in the way of the OP’s builds and what he has.
Also, IMO, the adding of race fuel to a driver for regular driving purposes is a bit much on the extra chore level for a regular car that’s driven & to be enjoyed.

If one was willing to add some race fuel to there car, that’s fine, just not a solution for most I think. You brake it down easy enough to justify the cost. It works out. However, to keep this level of running & driving pep ready at your disposal would probably require anyone using this method to retain a stock pile of race gas cans in there garage.

Around here, race gas available at certain speed shops come in 5 gallon cans at what ever the particular prices is for that particular fuel grade.

Around here;
C9-5Gal (96 octane) @$88.99 = $17.80 per gallon
C12-5Gal @ $101 = $20.20
C14-5Gal @ $115 =$23.00
C16-5Gal @ $118 =23.60

Outright cost is a bit pricey. Race fuel is not so easily gotten at the pump around here. Why push it? If it makes things more complex and cost more, why bother?
It’s EZ to whittle something down until it makes sense or in your favor dollar and cents, but when it comes to actually doing it, is the hassle worth it?

I really don’t have $200.00 + in spare monies to spend and then store race fuel for the enjoyable ride even if rarely driven. In the end, it doesn’t make sense or cents to do.

You certainly make good points, but to me, having to buy race gas compared to the sound, crispness, and torque of a higher compression engine is super worthwhile. Plus no nasty 10-15% garbage in pump gas these days
Around here i can buy it( 110) at the pump for 8 bucks, at the track for 9 a gallon.
I have a 15 gallon cell.
Frankly, i run a hoosier drag radial,many guys run such a tire, or a Mickey, or whatever. I actually think when i go out for a street cruise alot about having a flat tire, and things like that on a Saturday night. What do you do, how far do you go from home if a tow truck gets involved…do you leave you car unattended?
Stuff like that many dont think about.
So, at the end of the day, i dont venture terribly far from home, so the cost of 50 or 100 gallons of race fuel to drive it on the street during our modest summers isnt even a consideration to me
If i cant put a few hundred dollars in the tank to street drive my car each summer, i probably shouldnt have it.
Your also comparing NY to “ sane” states, LOL….
