Interesting topic...
I remember a few years ago when rumors were floating around Formula 1
paddocks that there was no gasoline left in Formula 1 'fuel'. People were
getting sick, paint peeling, etc. until the FIA started rigorous fuel
testing. The teams then started super-chilling the fuel to get higher
density.
Also when the Gurney Eagle team was going through it's successful run in
IMSA GTP. The rumors were out there about 'special gas'.

All part of the competitive fun, I guess!
