[s-cars] An S car moment

[Tom Mullane]

I think I have to agree there.on both counts.  Not a huge difference with
the 105/93 octane mix (about 96 octane I figure).  I am running the custom
Mihnea chip.  Thank God he is MIA for a while; I'm sure I'd be looking for a
race gas chip ;-)

Probably a waste of money, though, unless your tuning is set to take
advantage of the higher octane rating.  

I certainly agree about the bark of the Stromung, though.  I absolutely love
blasting away from the toll booth.  It sounds absolutely fantastic.  ;-)

Had an "S car moment" this weekend and figured I would share:

I was out running some errands with the wife, and happened to be in Paul K's
neck of the woods, home of Johnny's Mobile and 105 octane race gas.  I
thought "what the hell" I'll give the old girl a treat (the car, that is).
I pulled in and up to the center pump that dispenses the liquid gold.  I had
barely gotten the nozzle into the filler when the attendant popped out.  
"So have you ever used the 105 before?"  
"Nope" 
"You know what it costs, right?"
"Yep, I know..." <smile>
"Um, ok.  'Cause some people put it in by accident."

Back inside he went wondering what kind of a nutcase would put $5/gallon
racing fuel into an old sedan.  God, I love owning a sleeper.  I thought
about explaining the whole A6/S6/it's really a fast car thing to him, but
opted instead to bark the Stromung at him on the way out.  What a great car!

Tom
