So I cannot for sure say what the ethanol content of all the gasoline was for all those numbers. The trip this last week was all California 91 gas, presumably winter blend.

Back in WA I regularly filled up at a station that was 92 - ethanol free.

The cross country trip was gas from all over the place... could have been anything. 93 up to 10%

I agree that these numbers were pretty meaningless, wind factors could also throw it off that much. Next time I'll just put the top down and leave it in 3rd.

But since I drive the car quite often these were numbers that just 'felt' overall better than I had experienced before.

Now my bike still gets mid 20's lofting the front wheel down the back strait at Infineon...
