I think you hit the nail on the head with the additives.. it’s not the alcohol causing the issues... it’s the other stuff...
SWorrall....it was a really cool change when they made that switch... lots of teams were worried about how the fuel would perform, how many laps they could run, etc... in all it was a great transition.. I was thinking more on the other fuels used too... methane for Indy cars... that stuff is dangerous as you cannot see it burning. Nitro methane in top fuel dragsters is really hard on your breathing... it burns your nostrils and eyes.. it they have an alcohol class as well...
Really cool stuff when you think about it.
