    I'm not local to pitt but you're a heck of a lot closer to people east of Pitt than anyone who would have VP IMO.

    Would you be stockin motorsport 109 or 109E?

    You got that right, I have seen some pretty sick numbers from guys running standard c16, that have changed over to Q16..

    bummer... i live in an emissions inspection zone which means i need cats which means I need unleaded fuel.

    How about stocking some 109 or 109E for us unleaded folks? or even this unleaded fuel:

    I dont know how the distributor deal work, but have you looked at Torco too? I run their Accelerator in my car to avoid the race gas deal, but wouldl ove to have a local place to buy 5 gallon cans.

    Whats the details on this stuff? I read a little about it in a magazine once but they didnt give many details.
    Octane?
    How many gallons do you add it to?

    This could be alot cheaper route then buying 5 gallons of 110 all the time.

    Too bad you can only get the quarts. Its only effective for me to buy it by the 5 gallon can. Price goes WAY down at that. thanks for looking into it!
