VP racing fuels is the only place your gonna get consistant race gas from. You can try most sonocos, as the local sonocos in florida for the most part will always have a 100 octaine pump, as well as 5 gallon cans of 110 octaine. But VP or another race fuel specific place is gonna be your best bet if you want to run race fuel a lot.

again, thanks for the heads up bro... but here in IL.... we have a lot of places that sell race gas.... the citgo by my house offers 110 race gas for 3.60..... and a BP and Citgo 12 miles away from my house offers 100-110 also but it is a little more expensive, i was just trying to see who offers the best one thanks for your input

93 Here is over $3. I would run 110 unleaded all the time if I could get it at the pump for $3.60!

The 110 by your house is leaded though right?

Are most fuels above 100 leaded? I don't even know.

lol yezir, that is one little plus living in a "heeeeeeee hawwwww" hillbilly town like mine haha.... but to tell you the truth man.... i've only used in in my quad.... i've never used it in my car, and another weirder thing is that only in my town at this ONE gas station they offer this, everywhere else its like 5-7 dollars a gallon, really puzzles me, i wonder if it really is 110 octane
