So no one has used V Power racing? They had a review on pulp fuels on RPM
on the weekend, although it seemed a tad bias, they highly recommended
the v power racing, without any mods, just timing and fuel ratios they gained
a fair bit of power and torque.
Does anyone recommend NOT using any of these fuels at all?

Thats the same test they ran on RPM, it was run by motec. Good link..
It would be nice if they mentioned the other fuels they used.
V power racing looks good but not all shells have it.

ultimate here, seems to be the most consistant with octane rating and have the longest tank life without degrading. had cars ping their arse off on optimax/v power and it doesn't seem to last long.
much of what i have found was confirmed by the manufacturers in a article about different petrols recently published on autospeed.
synergy is good too, but no real servos near my place to get that.
never like going to shell anyway, to many ****s trying to use a 2c shop a docket, they probably waste more fuel by idling waiting to fill up, wtf?

did anyone see mythbusters last night?
they had this smallblock setup on a stand and they were testing all the myths on it.
like sugar in the petrol tank-did nothing
mothballs in the tank-made it rev its tits off really cleanly
bleach in the oil-cooked the engine till it siezed in about 2 mins

Shell V Power Racing, for the street because it's the highest octane fuel available at the pump.
VP C16, for the Dyno because it pick's up a little more boost.

bp Ultimate is my first choice if not, i go V-power, i steer clear off all celtexs and safeway servo's and try my hard'st not to us mobil unless i have too as a last resort, as every time i use it i alway get heaps less KM's out of a tank plus it dont seem to drive any better
