Carburetor needle valve like a challenge

“I’m always interested in ways to advance my racing and Carburetor needle valve like a challenge,” he said. “I drove on race fuel 15 years, so I knew this would be a good learning experience. I learned to be patient and not give up quickly when I had issues at the beginning of the season.”

After figuring out the jetting and timing of his Challenger, Oder noted the biggest benefit was the consistency of the car.“Consistent times allow for precise ‘dialing in,’ which is important in E.T. bracket racing,” he said. “My horse power and torque increased helping improve all my times.”

Although Oder burns about 30 percent more fuel the economics still work in his favor. The race fuel he used previously cost more than $7.70 per gallon. Ignite Fuel has a 114 octane rating and is about $4 per gallon—about a 50 percent savings.

“I would recommend it to my fellow racers to improve horsepower, torque and consistency,” Oder said. “Ethanol fuel doesn’t corrode like straight methanol, so I was able to use all the same fuel system components.”

Koch is in negotiations now to bring Ignite Fuel to zjautoparts Nebraska circle tracks including Junction Motor Speedway in McCool and I-80 Speedway in Greenwood.Winterizing your gardening tools saves time and money.
