ALMS to run Ethanol blends

Ethanol has made it's way to the ALMS now. Unlike IRL which is going to 100% ethanol this season, the ALMS will run E10 which is 10% ethanol and 90% gasoline. I wonder how much they are going to slow down? Probably not much but in a race, a little bit goes a long way. Fuel economy is a concern with a less efficient fuel as well.

All for the sake of political-correctness and an unsettled issue.

Dumb. Why pay more for less efficient gas.
