...I wonder who supplied the E85 fuel, because its RON of 101.5 is less than that of the E50 fuel (RON of 101.6), which, technically, is not possible. Pure ethanol (E100) has a RON of 129 and E85 a RON of 105-106, while E50, having more gasoline, should have a RON value closer to E10 than to E85. Typo?
...also, this statement should raise some eyebrows: "* Reported property values for RG and HO are typical values for these products. Actual values of the batch were not measured." ...because, if it's not measured, it's an 'un-controlled' element within the testing protocol.
...as I read it, all they're saying is "...if you've got the octane, you can get more power, if you also have (or can get) the requisite CR."

Reason: corrected: E100 RON = 129, E85 RON = 105-106
