The next most frequently asked question is why some fuel companies represent their fuels with Motor Octane Numbers, while other companies use Research or R+M/2 Octane Numbers. http://www.gomotocross.com/news-cont.php?action=fullnews&id=1505 Tech News: The Four Key Properties of Fuel http://www.gomotocross.com/news-cont.php?action=fullnews&id=1504 Too often, racers focus only on octane when evaluating the quality of a fuel. Octane is certainly important, but it¡¯s just one of several key fuel properties that should be considered when evaluating and selecting a fuel. It¡¯s entirely possible to generate more horsepower with a lower octane fuel if it¡¯s designed properly with respect to its other key properties. It¡¯s also possible for two fuels to have the same octane rating, but perform very differently due to their other key properties. http://www.gomotocross.com/news-cont.php?action=fullnews&id=1504 Rattray Celebrates Big Day with Southwick Win http://www.gomotocross.com/news-cont.php?action=fullnews&id=1503 Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasakis Tyla Rattray had a big day on Saturday as his first child was born early in the morning and he earned his second overall win of the season in the late afternoon.
