I live in Plainfield which is right on I-70 (15 minutes west of Indianapolis). There is a BP and Shell that contains 93 Octane.

About 2 miles down the road there is a Sunoco that has 93, 94, and 110 octane fuel.

I guess I just live in a good location?

I just looked at the Sunoco site and I was not able to find out if there is a Station near Xenia that has the 110. I checked the Speedway site and they only have 100 Cam2 BUT the closet one to Xenia is in Columbus. I am kinda lucky here in Eastlake becuase there are 2 stations that have it within a 10 mile radius.

There are two or three places in Columbus that sell race gas. Most other places all sell 93 with the exception of a few places selling 94 or 92.

I am just checking to see if there was gas station with good enough
gas to drive to and back from OHIO.To go to the shootout. I don't
run race gas.

At last years shootout. there was no gas good enough to run
in my stock motor. And I still need to swap in head gaskets.
Because of the kerosene they call gas in Oklahoma.

I believe that all gas has an ethonal blend allready mixed into it. Governmnet mandated, so you wont be able to avoid that.

Tim I don't drink any more.

















































Or any less

Tim I am sure that I will not be there with out a tune.
And I can't get it tuned, until I fix the head gasket.
But there is no since in fixing the head gasket, because
I can't get it tune. So I have given up because of I can't
or get someone to tune the scbird .

I have blown my head gaskets twice.
Driving a distance tring to get a tune.
So you think that I should go for number
three head gasket. trying to get a tune.

All I end up with in the end. Is blown head gaskets
and still need a tune.
