i know some unlimited drag racers putting something in their fuel. is this it? or is it something else? i know it wasnt nitro but heard that it was kinda un-friendly to the longevity but i cant remember what it was called.

I read a lot of words... but they didn't really say anything! It was all double-
talk, if you ask me!

I get a kick out of the "how to lie with statistics" section.
Using their fuel cost $2.80
Improvement by their test results 3%
Savings, about .08
Diptane costs you -.15
You figure the "benefit"
It's like the lottery, which is a tax on those who are poor at math.
Their statement of cost/benefit
