9.3.25. FUEL
All cars shall use fuel, as defined below, unless a specific exemption is made in the provisions for a specific category/class.
A. Permitted Fuel
Permitted fuel is herein defined as gasoline meeting specified dielectric constant standards and not containing any prohibited
substance in excess of stated limits. Gasoline is a mixture of refined hydrocarbons. Gasoline is an electrical insulator
and its relative effectiveness as an insulator is represented by its dielectric constant (D.C.). The average D.C. of gasoline, as
will be measured by an SCCA
Fuel Check Meter (Precision Fuel Testing HDE G-01 Fuel Analyzer), is defined as “0.0”. Gasoline may be tested and certified
at SCCA events by the determination of the dielectric constant using the SCCA Fuel Check meter and through the application
of various chemical analyses
(e.g., Reagent “A”).
SCCA Approved Fuel Meter: High Desert Engineering Model G-01
SCCA Approved Reagent Test(s) Germane Engineering Reagent “A”
Use of propylene oxide, ethylene oxide, paradioxane, and basic nitrogen or sulfur-bearing compounds (i.e. pyridine, aniline,
pyrrole, dimethylsulfoxide, etc.) is prohibited.
