I took a sample of the Strathmore 91 octane while filling up my vehicle on June 3, 2024.
When I checked the sample, it came out to about 8 or 10% ethanol for anyone who is interested.

Re: Trash can lid
Peak wind gusts were recorded at 89 Kph in Strathmore during the storm. Check with the folks in Brooks, Medicine Hat or Lethbridge for the lid.

Re: Fuel talk - octane, ethanol, etc.
The Co-op station I got the sample from was our spec station in Strathmore. Around August of 2023.

Re: Fuel talk - octane, ethanol, etc.
Nice discussion. I don't know if the fuel providers vary their supply batch by batch, but I did check the Co-op gas, sometime late (ish) in the season in 2023 and the fuel I tested did NOT contain Ethanol. I just checked it on one occasion, out of curiosity more than anything. Regarding the octane f...

Re: Perspective

Re: Can i use a bike pump + tire guage to inflate go-kart tires?
I agree with Jason. A bike pump is not ideal. A 5 gallon air tank is great and you can fill it at the track. You will be able to top up 4 tires in mere seconds. Princess Auto and similar are places for that. You will want at least a 4-foot hose and a decent chuck. One of the coiled hoses are good. A...

Re: Do young karters make better drivers?
I have observed many kids and adults alike over the years and I have a couple of thoughts. For the most part, what someone does on the street in their car will be determined greatly by their own personality and tendencies and many other factors. For example, a calm and even-keeled person vs an impat...
