E85 Rides!

Sept 11, 2008

Rob,

                I just wanted to send you an email saying how happy I am with the carb I bought from you.  Thank you!   I purchased it from you I think in May and have been driving the car and racing all summer.  Wow!  The car is fun to drive again!   On gasoline it ran 12.81 at its best, now its consistently in the 12.50’s all day long with the best pass of 12.44 @ 107 mph, in a 3950 lb heavy Chevy.  It’s probably paid for itself from the money I’ve won now that it’s consistent again.   I can drive the freeway again without fear of overheating and in fact I don’t really use the fan all that much anymore, plus my eyes don’t burn from the fumes.  No more searching out for race gas to mix, and around here e85 is about $.95/gal cheaper.  With gasoline it had vapor lock issues,  now I’ve discovered the more heat the better.  It doesn’t ping, diesel, or die in the staging lights.  The combustion chambers and valves even stay cleaner than before.  At first I was skeptical, but with an interest in newer technology.  I’m sure glad I made the change.  Got a lot of other people looking and asking me about it too when they see the e85 bumper sticker and smell something that’s not quite the same as the other cars’ exhaust.  You’ve got a great product, but even more your service is WAY above others which is why I decided to buy from you after shopping around.  Good luck, and thanks again!
