So what is this stuff? I've heard some of the more experienced members of this board mention it a few times, right along with high octane and race gas, but I'm not 100% sure of what it is. I'm assuming its either straight race gas, an octane booster or something along those lines. Not that I'll be buying or using it, I'm N/A and I like my low octane stuff, but I'm curious.

Thanks.

C16 is leaded 116 octane race gas. You prety much need it for over 20 psi boost. Its pretty expensive, about $5-7/gallon.

Thanks guys. I should've posted earlier, but my pc froze.



I think I learn something new every time I log onto this forum. Rock.

Go to the VP website, they say C-18 is 116 octane, odd system they have over there.
