Race Fuel??
#1
My motor (86 TRX250R) will soon be running around 215psi compression. I need to know what everyone thinks is a good Race Fuel to buy..The only fuel in my area you can buy by the pump is Turbo Blue..is this good enough? What does every run and where can I get it?..Sidenote question--I currently use Yamalube with pump 92 octane..when I switch to Race fuel, is Yamalube still a good oil? Should I switch oils..we do ride in cold weather as well...Thanks, Dave

If you run in the cold do not run the caster oil stuff. I have heard that it seperates from the oil under 50 degrees.
I just had my motor rebuild and need to run race gas only. My motor guy (REP) recomends VP C-12. I called one day and asked about another brand (I was in a bind) and he again recomended VP, but told me to run over 110 octane and make sure I got the leaded race fuel. Needless to say I made sure I found VP that day.
We used to run Turbo Blue in the stock cars years ago. But for bikes, I have heard that VP is made more for motocycle type motors.
If you are having trouble finding a dealer, call the regional office. That is how I found it. I looked at the VP web site (forgot address), called the CA (I live in CT) office and asked them. They were very nice and I called the East Coast regional office. They looked in their computer and found a bunch of places that are real close to me. It is actually a Harley shop that sells it.
Next year, I am going to just get the 50 gallon drum and store it for the year.
