A good friend went to e85 this season.
'85 Grand National full weight 3735 lbs , non intercooled, stock block , stock crank, stock rod, pump e85, on 28 psi of boost.
ET was 10.55 at 126.7
The main reason I wanted to post this was to add another real world setup with no intercooler being used and the ability of the ethanol to cool the charge like methanol. This is the same car I posted up awhile ago that made the same amount of power at 20lbs on e85 as it did on 28lbs with 110 oct. gasoline.
She is the car running in the near lane in the video.
Yes SHE.

saw that posted over on the turbo buick forum - I think a lot of the hot air people over there got their eyes opened up with that
pre 86 cars with no intercooler just got a lot more desirable........

Didn't Jamie go 10.51 yesterday Mike?
The car definitely has some left in it -- new exhaust mods and only one season on E85.

I have noticed people that have run it love it - I have never seen anyone stirring the pot about it that has actually used it themselves , they are just perpetuating the myths and fears generated by the oil industry which should rightly be scared of the potential of ethanol fuels to kill the golden goose of american dependancy on foreign oil.... 
I cant wait for the day I can get it in the pump in my own state - I have studied enough time to pump it

Yeh its mostly people that have seen motor hurt using e85. Weather it was proven to be tune or something else was ignored and just aimed at e85.
Its funny cuz how many times have you seen people blow their junk up on Methanol or C16 which are both some of the best fuels on the planet for internal combustion engines in racing application.
