If the price of corn wasnt going to skyrocket then yes e85, but seeing as my cousins a farmer in iowa, corn anything is going to hit the roof. He told me his corn crop there is only 3 ft tall. I understand hes exaggerating this but hes concerned over the price due to the drought. "our corn has never been this short in August" i believe was his quote.

We have numerous corn fields in ohio, and they all seem to be doing pretty well. I would imagine though,a s the fuel does become more readily available, that prices will start to incrase, as demand does

Stock Base Line 93 Oct vs STG1 Flash 93 (with Vivid Racing V1 Header that gave no gain) vs STG1 e85 Flash (with Vivid Racing V1 Header that gave no gain)

That is a STG1 vs e85...

Keep in mind this car has a Vivid Racing V1 Header that's doing nothing to improve power.
