Type of fuel should always be mentioned with mods, it's kind of important.

I would tell people 85 octane just because everyone continues to bitch about it. "Waahh! I don't have access to e85 so you can't call it pump gas." ****** crybabies.
Ok, I thought so.

Who are you to determine what is wrong?

Another example of "if Hio isn't doing it then it's wrong."

I'm with this guy, I always simply say the octane rating if straight gasoline or the ethanol rating if ethanol. But I'm a simple straight forward kinda guy.

E85 can give the same advantage as race gas....so it seems some would rather be deceiving and hide that they run it.
And that happens quite often. Its another vague term that gets used to downplay a car, just like that stupid *** term bolt-on. Not all the time, but very often.

I am straight forward too. I would tell anyone my car is on E85, and once I needed gas I would drive less than 5 miles and fill my car up with it. If someone is on E85 you can smell it anyway.

+1......except for many of us there either is no e85 or its enough away to make it a pita. There are threads on here all the time about guys not having e85 in their area.

It's not pump gas.....it's not race gas......it's ******* e85 dumbass.

Sure you've met guys that dodge or don't claim e85. Check out wpb, he always dodges that ****. Most try to pass it off as pump for some reason. I don't know wtf the problem is with just being straight up with people.
If someone asks me what fuel Im running, I say ethanol. If I was running 93 Id say 93. I've never responded to someone say I run pump gas. Well no **** you run pump gas! Stupid...

Like I said, its pretty obvious when someone has to run something more then 93 to achieve their power so its a non issue to me.

oh SRK, what would I do without you in my life. I feel like there should be a SRK car club. It would be pretty entertaining.
