    Fuel Fragrance?

    I just heard about this stuff? Apparently it is an additive that you add to your gas tank to make your exhaust smell nice. Anybody use it before (or even heard of it?)?

    It`s actually kind of a big thing with harly riders around my area. They think it`s "cool" to have their tailpipes smell like marajuana while cruising the town. They have all kinds of sents. Personally it`s not my thing.

    No idea what this might do to your engine (probably not good) but I have smelled the Vanilla and it was pretty neat. I always liked the smell of a little AvGas mixed 50/50 smelled pretty good, especially out the back of a 2 cycle dirt bike.

    Used to work with a woman that was a real CarGal (loved GTO`s), she was just fine to hang out with the guys and could talk cars with the best of us. She always used to say that there was nothing like the smell of Nitro in the springtime. I remember going to the drags with her and her husband. The Top Fuelers would go by and she`d grab the air and rub it on her face. They moved into our neighborhood and the first time I met her she was in some coveralls with and engine on the stand and scrubbing it down. She was a crack up.

    There is stuff you put in kerosene to improve the smell in kerosene heaters.

    This got me just curious enough to order some to try out! I went with blueberry and a watermelon just for fun.

    I love riding quads out on the sand dunes and following behind the guy who runs some VP race fuel, that is some good smelling fuel burn right there.

    I used to run VP in my raced out YZ250 when I took it out to the Pismo dunes. My stock 450f doesn`t need it, but it sure did smell good

    Pismo is the bomb, and since Pismo is about 10 minutes from my house, I get a yearly pass and am there almost every weekend in the summer. Sand drags, huckfest, comp hill, awesome

    If it`s safe for humans I have a friend that I go fishing with I`d like to try it on. He normally runs us all out of the cabins.

    If it`s that easy to make your order something, have you ever heard of BlackICE?!
