    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?

    There's Sunoco 110 in Toronto OH, its only about 15-20minutes for me and right on my way when I go to Quaker City Raceway. Last time I checked it was $5.49 a gallon.

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

    I think i may become a full fledged dealer, Since i don't plan on ever going anywhere, and the crazy stuff we build usually requires big octane, I think its gonna be a reality..

    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.

    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:

    Thats cool. I think their 100 octane fuel is the best on the market. I just like the 109E because its 50 stage legal (no MTBE) and the motor octane is a few points higher which means I dont have to run my tank so low before adding the pail to use my race tune.

    at least i can tune my project car to 100 right off the bat :)
