As anybody had experiences with these 3 three different racing gases? Any likes or dislikes of the three? Or maybe what type of quad you ran it in with your opinion?

Isn't Klotz the name of the beer that Laverne & Shirley used to bottle???

I'm not sure how much difference you'll notice with out any motor work. It would be minimal. Until you have the compression to burn the gas you're probably wasting money. We tried running 108 in a friends banshee with just pipes and filter on it, and it wouldn't hardly run at all. We had to drain the gas, and 50/50 mix it with some pump gas.

I do have a 12:1 high compression piston that I have to run race gas with. I was just trying to figure out who has used these products and there opinions.

VP and Super Fuels is all i've used and have had no complaints. Even with the compression i'm running I didn't seem to notice much. But i'm sure that any of the fuel would work well.

Any race fuel is better than pump gas. Most have lead, & engines love lead. Great for 2strokes because lead helps lubricate cylinder. On the other hand, if you are not racing or riding a 2stroke, I think it would be a wayste of money. But if you have the money, your engine will love it!

Make sure you don't have a plastic tank, because Klotz will turn it yellow eventually!

Does it do any harm to the tank or just turn the color of it? Where can you get a different gas tank and made of what?

I believe that IMS has a plastic tank for the Warrior but they don't show it on their website. What I was really talking about was the white plastic tanks. Klotz will turn them yellow after awhile. I ran Klotz for a little while and it sure turned my tank yellow. Then I switched to VP and it eventually turned back white. I don't think it hurt the tank when it turned yellow though. www.imsproducts.com
