Getting Ready

Remember all if you plan on racing in Biloxi OSS/SVL we all need to have our motors sealed. I believe there may be another sealing location this year besides Merc. Call Mike Tomlinson for details. The OSS rules should be out by April 1st. It has taken longer this first year working with APBA to align the rules with all the orgs racing under that banner.
 
According to MIKE T, the three accepted seals are ,,,MERC,,,INNOVATION,,,AND REHAR/MORRISON ,,( big time drag racing chassis and engine shop in Texas,,,)
 
Has anyone noticed a difference in fuel consumption with the ethanol gas vs the none ethanol? We always got around 1.9 MPG before. Just wondering if anyone did any testing.

Are you getting away from the fill it to the top technique?

Do you guys try to run the non ethanol when possible? I always wondered if racers in your class brought their own fuel as opposed to getting it at the closest gas station to the race site....
 
I would say we prefer the non ethanol. Not always available and to be honest I have not seen a differance in performance. We all believe its not as good but I have not seen the down side yet. Im sure it takes its toll on injectors filters ect.
