Does anyone run race fuel in their typhoon, both of our daughter's bikes are modded. We have used VP U4 in the past, but was wondering if someone had success with something else.

I've been running 110 octane from a local race shop. Not sure what brand it is but it's the purple stuff. Makes a world of difference.

I don't know much about racing so bear with my questions please. Is there a certain type of bike/atv you should race fuel in, a certain cc size or only if you intend to race? and are there units you should never use race fuel in?

Sunoco Race fuels from Lanier Speed way .Braselton ga.
High compression and pump gas does not like each other . Higher octane raises the temp in the cylinder .
If you really want to have some fun at the line,install a sneaky pete NOS under the seat ,if you can hang on,you will get the hole shot.I alway used a 50 hp shot in my CRX and played with the set up on my buddys 450r .Worked really well on the 450r,almost too well .Line it in behind the carb,install the trigger on the carb at wide open throttle.
Caution,Not Intender for children or repeated use.
