Not to sound like a dick, but you must live under a rock. There are tons of E85 stations in nor-cal. Most are in the Sac area, but there are quite a few spread out around the bay area. Fairfield, Concord, Hayward has a couple...and there are more stations coming.
E85 is great fuel. Runs cold, great octane rating!!
OP...nice times. I agree with the guys about the weight. This car has to be a pretty lightweight car to trap that high on the stock 8 turbo, regardless of fuel.

How do you keep your stock turbo together at those extremely high shaft speeds? When I was running my stock 10.5 VIII turbo to the limit (pulled the line to the wastegate, spiking 29ish) I ended up melting the exhaust turbine wheels and seized the trubo. Also on E85 I might Ad.

Congrats!
You almost have my ET beat, and you have me by 2 mph. I can't wait to rock out the E85 this year. If you were cutting 60' like me last year, you'd be in the 10's no problem.
