Does this product retain the smell? I know certain from racing motorbikes other fuels (U4E, MR12) has a distinct odor that stays in the system long after its gone. How does that work in the car?

I'm running catless so my exhaust smells like exhaust. Burning MS109 does give the exhaust of my car a distinct smell which I like. I can't say whether the odor is persistent after going back to straight 91 octane pump gas as I've been running 91 octane blended up to 93 using MS109 for the last month or so.

Took a short, in-town, back to back drive with the new and old Turbos.

The 996 Turbo is pretty heavily tweaked, ~540 HP, manual, heavy GT2 clutch, stiff suspension, titanium catless exhaust, race seat, etc.

The 991 Turbo is (currently) bone stock....

Definitely a bit of Jekyll and Hyde! I love 'em both.

Somebody correct me if I’m wrong lol...but my understanding was that if you don’t tune your car for race fuel it’s kind of a waste of money...because it allows you to push the timing because there will be less knock...but if it’s tuned to run 91 octane then the timing isn’t pushed, and the car won’t run harder on the higher octane???

race fuel let’s you run the timing more aggressively because it has less knock...but you have to tune a more aggressive profile.

maybe I’m wrong?
