What happened to Shells "V Power Racing" It was supposed to be 103 or 102RON from memory. I used to use that in my old car. One day i went to fill up and it was out of stock and they never got anymore.

Now i just use BP ultimate in the 1.

I think that due to the new fuel legislation (about 2 years ago), the top rating for automotive use is 100RON.

Sarah, they axed the V Power racing because of the price drop of cruel oil and the fact that not a lot of people buying them.

I love them personally but saw some gain in my rotary engine even it is NA, but in the last 6 months before it ends it has reverse the trend. At that time, people reports a lot of positive comments about the BP Ultimate (as the same time they launched the compaign). Now everyone is using BP....

Caltex 98 for me because its convienient.
Always bought from the same servo if I can, too many servos out there that will have poor fuel due to bad maintaince of the underground fuel tanks.
This way if I ever get bad fuel I know who is responsible.

BP U98 only

After seeing what just a drop of 3 ron (premium) can do to my GTR (tuned for 98 ron) I don't buy anything less.
