Nothing wrong with gasoline. Just like anythign else, there needs to be some common sense involved as well.
To each his own::: Gasolone has a lower ignition point than alky, Gasoline Requires co2 or dri-chemical to put out. You can put out methanol with water when and if it does ignite. Methanol is choice of most open wheel groups from gokarts up. I am not as sold on bladders because of the small amounts of fuel that we use. 5 gal's per race.

DOES YOUR FUEL PUMP TURN OFF WHEN YOUR MOTOR STOPS RUNNING??
