There's nothing wrong with Ethanol, most people who can get E85 are switching to it because its basically cheap racegas.
I ran the time in my Sig running straight Sunoco 94 and use it everyday to run up to 26psi.

Are you crazy - you can't put E85 in a non E85 vehicle, it will destroy it, it is highly corosive and will eat the metal filler, the tank and fuel lines if the vehicle isn't E85 rated and has all those components made from stainless steel or plastic!
As for E10 E15 which is what a lot of us have now which is ok to run in normal vehicles, it has a little less energy per gallon, but Ethanol actually has higher octane so helps a little with detenation and helps with water in the fuel in the winter and stops it from freezing, so it doesn't really hurt performance when tuned.
