V Racing was dropped 2 years ago due to poor sales. Stick with V Power.

Oh really? Haha that's how long it's been since I used it lol. I use any 98 really. There was a thing on the news a few years ago saying that from the tests they did, Caltex actually had the best 98 available, so generally I use that, even though I've always preferred Shell or BP.

Fuel resellers MUST advise on the pumps if the fuel they are selling has ANY Ethanol in it. It is a legal requirement.

I beg to differ drewVHSS

I use the 100 octane fuel on the WL caprice I have and I get about 150KM extra from filling u there and huge improvement in the HX Kingswood I have if I fill up (202 RED).
I'm not imaging **** either, the united @ Wyee & other places here on the coast have appalling 100 octane fuel blends and should be avoided at all cost.

I'm not 100% sure about that, it may come down to the % of ethanol in the fuel, for example, did you know that the diesel you buy in Victoria from Shell is 5% bio diesel? They do not have to declare the bio diesel component unless it is above 10%

Im confused, you say in the top sentence that you use 100RON fuel, then in the second sentence say its ****? Or did I read wrong?
