[lazylady902]

WOW!!!!!!!1 this really is a good thing to us. F1 fuel using to our car??????????? I think I din get wrong info from one of my fren. She saids that Petronas using the F1 fuel technology for their recently launching petrol. Is SYOK MAN!!!!!!!!!!

 

[jack5703]

Price syok also or not? :stupid:

 

[mizunori77]

i think you are referring to the new Petronas Ron 95 petrol.

not too sure about the tech details but it is definitely not the fuel that they use for F1 as F1 cars don't run Ron 95.

 

[kumar22mostwanted]

aiyo every company also like to use f1 as reference but you cant really expect the same quality of fuel for f1 cars at our pumps those f1 cars are super high compression n/a engines they need very high octane fuel
maybe a bit of the technology of the fuel is used at normal fuel like the additives

 

[speed2horizon]

the best petronas has is av gas wor...
av gas RON100...

Honda team last time runs on 85% methyl benzene aka Toluene...

 

[maxximuz]

aiyoh, using F1 fuel for our car, ya dream on. Wake up, it is just "F1 tech-inspired" nia

 

[c.low78]

yeah... it's F1 technology that is applied but not the actual F1 fuel formula... but still we are paying the same price as RON95 but with more benefits lo. No harm trying! Can go to their website for more info..

it is meant to wow people like you & make you go to their petrol station. Nothing new. Proton is now in F1 via lotus-renault, go and buy proton car, its definitely better then lamborghini because lamborghini dont use F1 tech in their car.. seriously, grow up..:sleep:

 

[dr_snape_79]

Hahaha.. do u think F1 fuel can get for RM1.90?

halo bro...how much is a proton compare to lamborghini la...cannot do comparison like that ma...for the petrol I don't see any prob lo since other station also charging the same without the extras...have you try or not?

 

[ronaldindin]

never fall for marketing gimmicks like this. just refill my car at some trusted petrol station, didn't really care about the brand or technology

Before this we only have RON96 and RON97.. now they came up with RON95 and claim it better.

Its better than what ? If it is 95, it should be worse than 96...simple said and simple math.

Its all marketing strategy..

AFAIK, last time before the introduction of RON95 there was RON 92 and RON 97 only. never heard of RON96 before. correct me if i'm wrong

Oh my..maybe i'm worng. hehe.. During the 'cheap petrol' era.. i always use 97. Now, the gov, media and manufacturer claims the lowest we can go if 95.. so when there was 92..what vehicle used it ?

 

[esthapo]

RON92 during carburetor era while most cars comes with EFI should be on RON95...but with this F1 fuel, nothing great bout it & doesn't differ from any other RON95 petrol on d road.....

 

[ken yeang]

hahahah. like that. SHELL should counter this gimmick by advertising ""Rocket Fuel", instead of RON 95...

Sure a lot of ppl would think their car will zoom up the sky like rocket.....after pumping in rocket fuel

you guys might find this interesting :D

The fuel used in F1 cars is fairly similar to ordinary petrol, albeit with a far more tightly controlled mix. Formula One fuel can only contain compounds that are found in commercial gasoline, in contrast to alcohol-based fuels used in American open-wheel racing. Blends are tuned for maximum performance in given weather conditions or different circuits. During the period when teams were limited to a specific volume of fuel during a race, exotic high-density fuel blends were used which were actually heavier than water, since the energy content of a fuel depends on its mass density.

source; Formula One car - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

avgas is rated with ron numbers exceeding 100 because theyre used at high altitudes so knocking becomes a problem with piston powered aircraft and theyre also blended with additives that prevent the fuel from icing up (temperatures up there get really cold down to -56C). that same additive if used in normal automotive engines will wear out your pump seals and more.

i dont mean to sound like a know-it-all here but since i have experience in the above matter im just sharing what i know

cheers ppl :top:
