Cost of Race Gas.......
 

What are you guy's paying for race gas in differant parts of the country?
I got some 110 Sunoco purple yesterday here in Tucson,AZ.
$7.30 per gallon.
When i was racing in '91 I think I was paying $6/ gallon.....

My bad, that should have been '01 that the gas was $6/gallon.....

A gas station right here in amish town has ( or had, dunno if they still do ) turbo blue race gas, it was like 6 $ a gallon last time i looked, but i donno what octane it was.

im not postive but pretty sure a local sunoco has 110 octane for 4.99.

AND THATS IN DEARBORN, MICHIGAN!:D

We have Citgo 110 (Unleaded) for 3.90.

lets see, av-gas 135 octane airplane fuel is 7.99 a gallon. and 110 sunoco is like 5.50 I think. Regular 87 is 2.14 course, I only buy 93 and up. down the road in SC, spinx sells 95 octane for 1.83. Damn SC gas tax is cheaper. I think the 95 is actually the same price as regular down there. Its funny, I don't know why though

5.50

Why would you want to run that fuel if you don't need it. The lower you run, the more power you will get out of your motor. So unless you're running a lot of boost, or high compression, there's no need for it, and you'll get a loss of power. Lower octane fuels burn hotter meaning more boom. So it's cheaper and better to run low octane. I run 89 in my car as it is the same price as 87, and run 14 degrees timing without a ping, slight ping with 87 so I bumped it up to 89 and problem solved

I dont use it, We use it for our race cars.

Better fuel means yoiu can run more boost with out detonating

I'm running 10.5 true compression (N/A).
I dont really need the 110 but thats all that there is around here.
I think I'd be fine with real 100 octane.......
BTW, was at the track today and it was $6.75 for the same 110 Sunoco..
