Today at Cleetus McFarland, the team embarked on a daring experiment involving Ruby and moonshine. As they delved into the world of alternative fuels, the team compared the characteristics of moonshine, E85, and methanol, shedding light on the unique properties of each. With moonshine being pure ethanol, the team braced themselves for a potentially fiery outcome.
In a display of scientific curiosity, the team ignited samples of moonshine and methanol, showcasing the stark contrast in their combustion properties. The clear burn of methanol stood in stark contrast to the mysterious allure of moonshine. Amidst anecdotes and tales of moonshine's legendary power, the team prepared Ruby for the ultimate test on the dyno.
After a successful dyno run on E85, which yielded a power increase without tweaking the timing, the team set their sights on the highly-anticipated moonshine trial. With doubts lingering about the ignitability of moonshine, the team approached the experiment with a mix of caution and excitement. As they cautiously sipped on the potent moonshine, the team braced themselves for the moment of truth on the dyno, ready to witness the raw power of this unconventional fuel source.
