[QUOTE="Bill Thomas, post: 50900, member: 485"] Morning Greg, Vibrac could tell you more than me, But in the road class I used to run in it was called Pump petrol, I think the others were bending the rules !! Getting it from an Airfield ! The Vintage class I think is allowed Methanol, The bloke with the Norvin was taken to one side and told to change it. But because I road my bike on the road as well I had to use normal petrol. I loved those 12s They made my bike fly on 100 octane ie Avgas Wich you could buy at a normal petrol station, Till the late 70s. I think I ran about 24 to 26 deg's advance on a modified D dist'. When I built my L/ning rep' it was 1980 so I could only run 9 to 1 pistons, Guess who used his L/ning on the road also !! I am going to Hell !! Yours will Fly ! Good Luck, Bill. [/QUOTE]
