COntact Pratt & Miller. They are taking oders to begine APril 08 delivery.

The E85 cars are to be Califonia CARB compliant. Most race fuels will be E85 100 octane very soon anyway.

Some of the challenges with E85 race fuels is that it speparates very quickly, and eats fuel cell liners. Fuel needs to pumped out of the Fuel cell each night and should not be stored in the race cars fuel cells.

E85 race fuel is not very stable and needs to be produced and used as close to the race date as possible.

But Politically - Green and Marketable to the general public as 'doing the right thing." ( makes my gut turn )
