For 85 mph :roll:

Not too smart trying to outrun the police on an empty tank, just pull over. Proves that you can not outrun the police radio, not to mention they got his vehicle tag number, where in the hell did he think he was going. Unless you have plates that flip and a paint job that can wash off quickly, now your talking.

10,000 dollars bail is nothing to him.

Thats like the best you can possibly get though, I am sure he is getting lower MPG than 17 and when hes stepping on it im sure he is just watching it go down. My vette gets 20-22 when I drive it but the manual says 27 or 30 or something like that, however the lambo gets good mileage for a v-10 monster, its all that power just pulling the car, you hardly have to step on it to get it going.

What kind of gas do you use in your Vette Z? I know 93 but any place special?

I use premium 92, but I always throw in 104 octane booster racing fuel with my gas. If higher octane fuel ever came around to the pumps in my area I would be one to fuel up with it. I have also noticed an increase in gas mileage with it too. I am still questioning running race fuel in my vette anymore, the car is set to 94 but unless my car is highly modified I think its useless to throw it in there. In fact your car may actually run slower on higher octane if its not setup for it.

When I had the whipple blower on my Z71, several of she shops said that ocatne booster is BS. It raises it like .10% not ten % octane like they claim.... :? :?

Octane booster works, but you have to have the right setup for it. Low compression or stock engines would not benefit from it much if at all, higher compressino and cars that are highly modded or run boost are probably most beneficial. Be carefull if you buy any, dont get the stuff with alocohol or MTT, as its very harmfull to your spark plugs.
