Doping in Daytona

As jet fuel is just cleaned up kerosene, I don't think that it would be a viable thing to try. They would be lucky to get the engine lit, it takes quite a bit of heat to get it going. The only reason turbine engines continue to run is because it is constantly burning. However if they could get it going it would produce more power. Kerosene produces 19,000 btu more energy per gallon than gasoline.
