im going to drive it. Too many fun mountain roads up that way not to drive it

I would be very very surprised if you can find pump e85 up there. e85 fuelfinder says the closest pump is 80miles away. Ill be running on either q16 or vpImport, not sure yet. I know VP will be there so they can probably hook you up with e85 if you dont want to bring it

I'll be there with a red w/white stripes viper working the event (possibly sneaking in a run). If you see me, feel free to say hi.

This is the part I hate about using E85

I'm not familiar with those other two fuels and willing to be I could not use them without recal'ing the tune. Looking forward to a great time up there regardless of bringing my car or not!!!

yup. she will be done for a private dragstrip rental the wednesday before the event for some shakedown passes.

Im shooting for 195+ on the new build so hopefully i can pull it off. Car should be making right around 1200 at the wheels on e85

With that kind of power, you should be right around that speed. I wouldn't be surprised to see 200. This event is a little smoother than carrabelle in my opinion with a much longer shut down area. The only issue is its a little higher in elevation. I'm hoping for 165 with "only" having 700hp.

I think my wife and I just decided to take the Tahoe instead. I definitely appreciate the offer.

Flex fuel kit!! Sensor gets installed in the fuel line and changes the fueling and spark depending on the ratio of ethanol/gasoline

Will it fit in the trunk of my Cobra? Wait, you're all the way down by the coast huh? I'm up in Greer... I could atleast get it this far for you or meet you halfways or something if nobody else can do it.
