Do boy, do you what suits you . I like racing and competition. No reason to hate on another's choices in style. It's all subjective and fun is the measurement.

Squidn't that a coinkidence, I actually have an ink to the study with the octane and have it memorized. E85 is 95.8 octane (R+M) /2, but E50 is 96.5 so it's completely worthless for comparison. Tuners say C16 which is 116 octane and that's what the results say more or less.

For consistency running a very high strung setup, you need to go with a race blend for E85. But that is no different than race gas, except it's still pretty cheap. Still better than running Methanol.
