My car has always left a light gray exhaust residue on the underside of the car from the collectors back. I now have a redish brown residue. New batch of Cam 2 110 from a track these 15 runs. Is this from the purple dye in the fuel?

That is a sign the fuel contains to much MMT additive in it.Methylcyclopntadienyl manganese tricarbonyl is used to boost the octane rating of the fuels.

YUP! Glad someone knows their stuff! Very helpful. Instead of all the political B.S.
