As one of the original cynics, I filled up with Nitro on leaving Eaglescliffe after the PMS meet. (I had used BP Ultimate on the way down) and I did notice a difference between that and the normal petrol i use which - due to availability and the lack of choice - is normally 95RON. It was more responsive and the occasional hestitation experienced with (because of?) the lower octane stuff was absent. Also absent was the engine managament light which has been on for a while due to the sports cats throwing a warning about lamda sensors bank 2 or whatever. So that was a plus too. and its stayed off.

The trouble with being a cynic is that you always take the view that some b@st@rd is trying to screw you and that all marketing/advertising is evil. I take the comedian Bill Hicks' point of view on this.
