For car enthusiasts, the seasons are a major influence on the steps taken in order to maintain, protect, and preserve our beloved vehicles. With winter’s clutch slowly gripping the country its become apparent that proper precautions against the season’s contingencies need to be taken. Whether you have an updated street rod, a muscle car, or a performance racing vehicle, despite their prowess on the open road, even the hardiest of rides need to be prepped for the deadening hold of winter! This is especially important if you plan on storing your car or truck for a majority of the time while waiting for spring.

Our buddies at VP Racing are industry leaders within the performance fuel market. The mad scientists who concoct these task-specific fuels pride themselves on their R&D. With that dedication comes an attention to virtually every situation possible involving a car and its fuel – even prolonged storage.

With VP’s new C9 storage fuel you can rest assured that while your beast of the road slumbers its drivetrain isn’t slowly eaten away and corroded from the inside out. C9 is an ethanol-free, non-oxygenated, unleaded fuel blend that prevents all the problems associated with ethanol in pump gas such as leaving deposits, clogging injectors, attracting moisture, and separating while in storage.

“With an octane rating of 96 (R+M/2), C9 provides an economic alternative to C10 that still offers more resistance to detonation and improved performance over premium pump gas. C9 won’t harm catalytic converters or oxygen sensors and will provide great starts in heat or cold.” 

Ensuring the integrity of the fuel that sits inside your vehicle during winter will prevent any unfortunate drivetrain malfunctions, leaks, clogs and/or internal corrosion. While your car slumbers in peace you can rest assured that VP’s storage fuel will give you some peace of mind as well.
