Yep, and worrying about what percentage of it is water. Smart money would build for 87/89 octane.

I couldn't agree with your more, Richard.

So you would tells this to a drag racer that keeps getting beat as well? Don't worry you keep throwing your money out there and continue to lose! In my mud bog/run class I'm in, I'm right in the middle of the class. The people above me are running more power. I'd like to start getting some money back in return for going to events....

Nope, my comments are more attuned to the street. For a competition vehicle you're in a different situation, but consider the problems with ethanol blends in your logic, too, like how much fuel to keep on hand between outings, how to store it (small volumes, less air), etc, etc. It's a different time than it was back in the day...

You're not being real with us. You didn't say anything at all about being in competition when you opened this thread. Here is your statement:

"How many of you guys run them out here? I'm looking at one for my next upgrade in my K5. I'm not realty worried about the life because I don't really drive it that much, more of a play toy."

We wil answer one way for a street cam (playtoy) and another way for a mud bog cam (competition).
