Av gas is cheap under 3 dollars a gallon and racing fuel like VP green is 6+ a gallon, the octanes are 112. Alot of people run AV gas instead of racing fuels because of price. Im not talking about the stuff you put in a 747 teh stuff you can get at a small local airport.

You can get aviation fuel at any small local airport, here in California its $3.05 a gallon. Its smells awesome!!!!almost like VP C12. It ranges usually between 102-108 octane, (VP C12 is 108 and $6.00 a gallon) and it really burns nice and doesnt leave all that crappy build up and stuff on your injectors and other internal parts. I run it all the time in my 'Stang, its just a pain sometimes when its time to fill up the 55 gallon drum, but its worth it!
