My vision, shared by few.
Look at SCTA. Control Fuel makes life easy.
Eventually as a club we will come to a point where a "control fuel" will suddenly make a bit more sense.
Having bought it up in the past and given lots of options, apathy in general has stopped it happening yet.
When club members in general agree we will get to a point where we have a semi sponsored fuel supplier that will supply a control fuel that is affordable. (ie much cheaper than real race fuel and not much more than premium pump)
We will have it available to dyno with. It will be a better fuel for engines than "pump gas" because it will be a bit higher octane than we can buy.
It will eliminate us all taking home excess expensive race fuel or being limited to pump crap and not getting the best from our engines.
It will be legal!!!!!!!!!!
My vision, and eventually we as a club will get to this point. Btw suppliers have already committed to make us whatever fuel we specify, "we really want the contract".
We as a club can make this happen in the future but we need to think together as a group and plan it ahead.
Most of us are "Lone Wolves" and control freaks in our own sheds preferring to do our own thing, but on this point we can work together, save ourselves big bucks and run hard.
Its a win/win provided you want an even playing field in the future.
My .02cents worth and too late for this year but easy doable if we choose one day.
