    You cant compare Alcohol vs Gasoline in that manner. Everything is cooler in general which means it burns better and make more power

    im comparing alcohol to gas as to how it burns. but you do add timing with race gas because of the much higher octance. and with E85 you can add timing just the same. and the TIMING is where you get the quicker spool.
