Default Fuel Dyno Comparisons

In this months Banzai, they have compared the top 3 "performance" fuels on a YB series Cosworth engine @ Field Motorsports, their conclusion after dyno testing was as follows

Normal 95RON U/L - 512BHP 417lb/ft
Tesco 99RON U/L - 521BHP 421lb/ft
BP Ultimate U/L - 530BHP 428lb/ft
Shell Optimax U/L - 537BHP 434lb/ft

looks like I'll be going back to using BP Ultimate again, as it's only up the road, where as Shell is about 1/4 round trip to Rayleigh

May not be an Event, but a worth while post me thinks
