VP Racing X98 is a 98% ethanol race fuel built for closed-course competition where maximum octane and combustion consistency matter more than pump-fuel convenience. Ethanol's high latent heat of vaporization pulls significant heat out of the intake charge on the way into the cylinder, which is why high-ethanol blends like X98 support aggressive compression ratios and forced-induction setups that pump fuel and standard race gas can't handle without detonation.
At 115 octane (R+M/2) — 105 MON, 125 RON — X98 gives tuners a wide margin above pump fuel's typical 91-93 octane, allowing ignition timing to be advanced and compression raised without knock. Ethanol also burns with a wider stoichiometric air-fuel ratio than gasoline, so engines running X98 need rejetting or a tune update to run correctly — this is not a drop-in additive, it's a dedicated race fuel requiring fuel system setup for ethanol.
X98 is formulated for closed-course racing only, not for street use. Ethanol is more aggressive toward certain rubber and plastic fuel system components than gasoline — confirm your fuel lines, seals, and carburetor/injector components are ethanol-compatible before running high-ethanol content fuel. Not intended for pump-fuel engines without ethanol-rated fuel system components.
Key Specifications:
Art of Racing is your EU source for VP Racing products. Ships fromEurope.
Race fuel is classified as dangerous goods, so it cannot be sent by air or outside the EU. Orders to any other destination cannot be completed.
Race fuel is not eligible for free shipping, whatever the order total. Carriage is calculated from the weight and destination at checkout. A maximum of 2 containers can ship on one order.

VP Racing Fuels is an American manufacturer of purpose-blended racing fuels established in 1975. VP produces fuel formulations covering 2-stroke and 4-stroke motocross engines, with ethanol-based and non-ethanol options available across multiple octane grades.
VP fuels are used at professional and amateur motocross events worldwide. Each formulation is developed for specific engine configurations,
compression ratios, and jetting requirements, with published specifications for octane rating, oxygen content, and Reid Vapour Pressure. VP Racing Fuels deliver consistent combustion characteristics batch to batch — a critical requirement for competition tuning where fuel variability affects engine mapping and jetting calibration.
