I have used aviation fuel blended with Sunoco 94 with no problems. I see no differance when blending with racing fuel from the track.

The key word is that you 'blended' the aviation fuel with land based 94 Mark. The airplane gas has a higher octane number (assuming you used 100 ave fuel) and you probibly wound up with around 97 octane. Good stuff for any street/strip car.

Keep in mind that octane is only a number representing the anti-knock properties of fuel. A higher number will not cause a car to go faster nor develope more horsepower.
