Thanks, everyday is a schoolday i didnt realise there were so many types of methanol, which ones are allowed to be used, without the addition of additives.

As far as I know, the end products are all the same, just each production method has a different environmental impact.

Watching Polish racing at weekend they had a methanol tank in the pits...

Presumably so all riders use the same source? 

It used to happen over here didnt it? 

If so, why not just go back to this system?

Elf n Safety?

Went to a new optician the other day who was born and grew up in Pakistan but has been over here about 40 years. He said what's happening here reminds him of how things are back in Pakistan. Makes you think eh
