nope nothing with 100RON yet!
You germans get all the best stuff, best cars, best roads and now best fuel too [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/tung2.gif[/img] We still have Shell Optimax here i think its rated at 98RON....... i will use some millers soon to pump it up to 99RON - 100RON [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/tung2.gif[/img]

We HAD optimax, too. [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
Hope the new fuel will be better. (Well, optimax was not bad!)
At racetracks (in Germany) you can buy race fuel 103 octanes. [img]images/graemlins/jump3.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/033102bigblink_1_prv.gif[/img]

How much does one liter(sorry don't have these stupid english measures [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]) cost (1litre super plus)?
For your help in a rs4 tank can be 65 litres of fuel. [img]images/graemlins/062802beat_prv.gif[/img]
So do a bit of calculation. [img]images/graemlins/idea.gif[/img]

So there is a progress in your country! [img]images/graemlins/clap.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/tung2.gif[/img]
Back to prices: race fuel is (103oct.) 1 pound 10 pence. [img]images/graemlins/jawdrop.gif[/img]
Normal fuel (super plus) is about the same. [img]images/graemlins/033102bigblink_1_prv.gif[/img]

Yes, but only because the euro is currently worth more than it used to be [img]images/graemlins/033102bad_1_prv.gif[/img]

LOL Conti !
That's a nice way to jump into the pit [img]images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

As for the French Measurement System, it's our secret weapon to take over the World.
Next one is the Trizillion Gazillion System which will supercede the... (hang on a minute). DARN, Mini Me ! No, you can not eat the dog !

Petrol in this country is a disgrace. Optimax may be 98 but it doesn't say that at the pump. And normal SUL is 97 octane. It costs 83p in Milton Keynes for Optimax and 86p for 97 RON - supermarkets only sell 95RON

In France SUL is 98 RON and you can buy in in all the supermarket petrol stations for Euro 0.98. The car runs really sweet on this too.

As I said, disgraceful [img]images/graemlins/colflash.gif[/img]

With optimax you have a power provement up to 6%. [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]
I don't know how much it is with the new shell v-power,
but I'll find out. [img]images/graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]
