Dunno, but I fully sup****t the large scale roll out of E85 across petrol 
stations in Australia.

Ethanol actually has lower energy per litre then does petrol, however it's

massive octane rating 104 for E85 means that it works great guns in 
turbocharged and supercharged motors and you can get significantly more 
power then you ever could with petrol.
