Mark Thomas, (IHRA Alcohol Funny Car) runs straight Ethanol and has won several points championships with it. I've tried several times to find a supplier of straight Ethanol here on the East coast to no avail.
I've heard some good things about it as opposed to Methanol. So I hear, it doesn't have as bad a corrosive problem as Methanol so it's eaiser on the fuel system.
I guess one day it will be available here and I'll get a chance to play with it. Until then I'm always on the lookout for some one selling in my area.
And BTW, E85 is just as hard to find also.
