If they ran straight #2 there performance numbers would be greatly increased. Everyone knows this Whit, get with the program. BTW- What was that again about racers dont need lubricity?

5% - 8% less energy in a gallon of average 100% soy biodiesel compared to a gallon of average #2 petroleum diesel.

If a racer can't tune for that...they shouldn't be racing.

Why should they have to? Why would I want to start with less power and try to compensate to make more. In the end you're still down on power by typically 10%.
