So here is how I see AV fuel.
CO is the one dog who can see color. He's running around telling all the other dogs about color and they just look at him puzzled because they have never seen color before.
I may even try some myself.
Keep it up CO you are gaining a following.

I still follow this thread and see votes dribbling in, but it appears to be holding at about 50/50.
Thanks again for all those who took the time to vote.

I only used pump gas in 2 previous pilots and 1 ody,never had problems.Some of them were modified but they had normal compression.In the Pilot I have now{cr500 piston} I've only used race gas mixed with 93 octane,but recently switched to Avgas and have runs 4 or 5 large tanks of gas with it with no problems.If I remember correctly my compression is around 170

Yeah, that 170 compression reading is right on the race gas marker! 168 psi is the consensus on where to draw the limit. After that is race gas!

I run VP race fuel. I cheat though, I have drums of it here for the race cars... Use either: C10, C12 or occasionally C16
