Alcohol can be an excellent high performance fuel for a lot of reasons. But the engine really needs to be built for it. Unfortunately, it's hard to build an engine for e100 and pump gas. At the moment, it's not really a feasible fuel unless the car is dedicated for a single use.

But, with the high octane and cooling effect, the engine can make a lot of power, especially when it's hot. I use e85 pump fuel at the track, it runs better than it ever did on Sunoco 110.

Is it environmentally friendly? IDK, maybe. It certainly burns cleaner, and creates fewer emissions. But the distilling process can be problematic. Not sure what the answer is.

Ethanol is for drinking. 100% pure ethanol is moonshine, and lethal. You need a liqueur license to sell it. Denatured Ethanol has something added to it - like 15% gasoline - to make it non-potable. What is added to e100 to make it non-potable? IDK. And if something is added, how can it be e100? IDK that, either.
