Also, we have no updates as to when or if other stores will be upgraded.

I did ask them if they where thinking of bring it to Scotland but doesn't look like it in the near future.

We should maybe start a campaign tho! we could all e mail them on a daily basis to ask them to install this petrol in the new stores that they are planning to build in Scotland!

Don,t bother buying 99RON at Tesco cos it isn't as good as it seems. They did a Rolling Road test in Performance Ford Mag last month comparing the performance of normal 95RON, BP ultimate (97RON), Shell Optimax (98RON) and tesco 99RON.

The results were quite surprising, the test was done using a 500bhp cosworth where the performance of the Tesco 99RON was only marginally better than the standard 95RON fuel. The timing and the boost had to be altered and the power and torque results were way off the BP and Shell.

The results were conclusive that the Shell Optimax was the best by far, giving much increased power and torque with more scope for timing advance.

So IMO having read this, for the sake of a few pennies per litre, the best option is to stick with the Optimax.

Dont know if anyone else on here saw the article, but deffo worth a read if you can find it.
