This non-standard pump fuel.

IIRC at one point some years ago Cleveland Discol, a pump fuel; was banned because it contained something like a 1% alcohol trace. Either use standard pump fuel or just open the floodgates for those that can afford rocket fuel. Back to basics ...
It is true about the sidecar family - you can stop racing but you can never, ever leave!

If not the price, what should be Mark?

I have to say £102 for 25litres is a lot, but at least it's by choice, not like BSB where you have to buy their barrels of stuff or can't race.. that's robbery!

Sunoco fuel is not the problem. Most of the solo guy's use it, and the Acu allow it. The F2 boys use it' and so do F1' . The problem is the additives that are cheaply available, easily obtained giving a big increase in power. Shame really that people feel the need to cheat, but it happens.
