Thoughts and suggestions on fuel

Ok so 1st off I have to say my location makes this issue such a problem for me, I live in hawaii first off. As far as better then 92 octane, there is one gas station that sells 100 octane but it cost 9.99 a gallon and I am positive I can get a higher octane like lets say 110 octane cheaper then 10 bucks a gallon. Hell even if I could run q16 for 10 bucks a gallon would be great, but my issue is who can I order from??? How and How much would I have to pay to ship it to hawaii???

if I could order a 55 gallon drum or 2 at a time to cheapen the cost per gallon I surely would but like I stated, what companies are out there who would ship to me? I could only assume somewhere in cali possibly.

i have no idea about shipping fuel... but you may wanna look into e85 if you're gonna go that far. it's cheaper than any race gas you can get and it's rated at 110 octane

But there is sugar cane. I would look into making my own ethanol and selling it. So even the local speed shops can't get "da kine" racing gas brah?

no ****. but were you not just asking about ordering some fuel to be shipped to you? were you just talkin about from island to island or from here on the mainland where we have lots of e85.

Either way, island to island or from mainland, I'm just trying to see what's out there.

well e85 is "out there"


i'm lost as to why you say "there is no e85 on our island" when you're asking what's out there to be shipped to you.

E85 is cheaper than any race fuel you can get your hands on.

I know the one E85 pump I have in my area is a gas company and sells to government vehicles exclusively. But they offer 55 gallon drums I believe. So it can be done. Shipping fuel overseas would be your highest cost I'd imagine. Even USA to USA.
