Smile shell optimax research

I had some woman ring me up at home yesterday, asking me questions on what i thought about shell optimax - she went on and on for a bit then invited me to some group meeting in stockport to discuss the fuel and future improvements etc. Then said i would get £35.00 cash for my time (1H 30mins)

I am looking forward to it - has anyone else had this?

Regards

Jud

Hopefully its better than the crappy keyring i got in the post with buying somany litres of fuel!!!!

If there was a bit more time we could have got lists of members off this forum and other performance car forums who want higher octane fuel in the UK and you could of took it along, probably wouldnt achieve much but you never know?
