My understanding is that for Gas class cars, you must run the gas provided at the meet, that is why I was asking.
Thanks for the link

Does erc bring different grades of gas to speedweek? My busa has 11-1 compression and probably would run best with something considerably milder than the 110.

ERC has the tanker trailer towed to Bonneville in early August -- and the trailer didn't leave 'til after World Finals was done, in '07. So most, if not all, of the gas is available at all three Bonneville meets. There might be some limited-volume fules that are delivered in 55-gallon drums in the back of the equipment trailer -- those might be empty before the end of the season -- but the big-volume fuels are there for all year.
And -- if you're looking for something with lower octane -- I think that ERC takes some unleaded fuels to Bville, too.
Hey -- why not contact ERC and ask them what they'll have for you?

Thanks. SO the 110 octane is legal for "Gas" classes?

At El Mirage, it's what you bring, or buy it from the offsite vendor (?). Just north of the lake bed is George Callaways ranch. He is the vendor. |

Well, it used to be Los Angeles . . . 50 miles north of Fresno now.
Just remember . . . It isn't life or death.
It's bigger than life or death! It's RACING.
