Anyone have a good method for locating race gas (100+ octane) pumps other
than www.racegas.com (Sunoco)? I know there has to be something closer! I want to try out the APR 100 octane program. I called Summit Racing and they told me about a Duke & Duchess pump with 114 octane CAM2, but it must be leaded.

Good one, but they said they didn't have it at the pump. Only those
with an account can get it in a 5-gallon container... and I didn't inquire about opening an account.

well, VP makes the best gas around, and have TONS of different formulas. go to a motorcycle shop and
pick up a brochure...... 5 gallon pails., or 55 gal drums
you need LEADED gas in a s4?????? what about your oxygen sensors?
also if your lucky the motorcycle shop may have a 55 gallon drum, but its usually c12 which is 108 octane, but its more consistant then alot of other higher octane fuels, which means it may be betteer then some higher octane fuels becuase its more consistant. its also leaded.... dont know why you need that though.
if you find a hwolesale outlet and plan on using alot of race gas, buy a 55 gal drum......<ul><li><a href="http://www.vpracingfuels.com/vp_01_fuels.html?mgiToken=0C15B7C8A53AEB881">vp race fuels</a></li></ul>

It's nearly impossible
I know of one sunoco local to me with 100 octane. It wasn't listed on that website. I heard rumour of two other stations in this area with 100 and spent about 4 hours searching the net and actually calling gas stations with no luck!
I called every gas station listed in the local yellow pages. Many of the employees who answered the phone had no idea what I was asking for. I probably called at least one that has race gas but the person working the register wasn't fully trained
Many of them said, "100 octane? What's that?"
We took a nice Sunday drive around Virginia Beach for a few hours one day.. touring gas stations! I **really** wanted to find one cheaper since the sunoco went to $4.99/gal.
