For Sunoco at the track we have to check the fuel at setup and every morning after that. Nascar gets a fuel sample every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last sled ran Surge….and my next one might also. I’m skeptical of the race fuels available locally. Only one station and I know that shit is old. Local dirt track has some decent stuff but it’s a bit of a haul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFM Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 We have a small airport 4 miles from here. Pay at the pump. Unmanned. Open 24/7. Avgas is not for everyone but it would be for more than people would think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than for storage, due to being non ethanol, it's a poor choice for a sled. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SayatodaU.P.eh? Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 To answer the question of the thread, I’ve never popped one. On my 4th 800 CFI Polaris now, as well. Posting this however will almost certainly guarantee that I yak BOTH of my sleds this year though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much new on my end. Just work work work Hope everything on your end is good as well. Ya, that DOO was the biggest piece of shit I have ever owned.

I'll give you the pity bump you're looking for .. my buddy's 2018 XCR 800 blew on him. Granted, it was a lemon / hack job by Mr. Bikeman himself, Erich. My buddy was getting "a deal" from Erich on the work ... however, I think my buddy would argue that looking back on the experience. Was this before or after his nights and weekends stint in the workhouse for theft . I can't believe people continued to spend money on his hack shit for so long .
