Nice times. Congrads

Very nice for that weight!

Keep in mind though that running any octane level above what you need to keep detonation at bay will cut into the HP numbers.

I never said 112 was pump gas. Motor is 11.1. and will run on pump gas which I run on the street. I choose to run some 112 at the track for a safer tune considering the junk gas at the pump.

Scott Stoneburg 04-03-2022 01:42 PM

I have done the same so far. Mine is just over 11 to 1 . I think it's safe on pump gas but mix a gallon or so of 110 in to be sure. At least until I am sure of the tune.

Great 60' time. My car is 11.2 CR and I run 93 pump without issues. I've had the motor apart and no signs of detonation.
