Dumb idea, except if your a corn farmer.

Less energy in a gallon of ethanol, so to have the same acceleration and speed you're going to be using more fuel.

I've heard you just have to step on the accelerator harder--a lot harder! The problem is you probably have to replace your accelerator pedal as often as you have to replace your engine... But who cares about that?
