E85 is 85% Ethanol. Since it's ethanol I believe it's around a 105ish motor octane, but like Methanol it takes more to run. If you doing a boosted setup or a high compression motor, then you'll see the bigger benefits. I was reading and article and the IRL switched to E85 this year and used 20% less fuel than last year.
