Dad used to add water to his Methanol/Peroxide racing fuel, depending on the humidity of a particular race day. The proper measuring device was a 6 ounce Coke bottle. With normal humidity, two bottles got added to the 8 gallon stainless steel pony keg he used for a fuel tank. A dry day got three, and a really humid day got one. He said the water would flash to steam when it hit the combustion chamber, and keep the fuel mix from burning holes in the pistons. That was on a 300 cubic inch flathead V8 running over 11:1 compression. Those engines burned fuel at the rate of 8 laps per gallon on a 1/4 mile dirt track!
