I did some research. There's actually a TON of people who supply it and ship it. Most of the people who ship it though cost WAY too much (added price on shipping makes the meth over $10 a gal!). There's one or two who don't charge too much to ship, however I will probably only be getting 5-10 gal at a time, so its in my best interest to just go pick it up an save $ on having it shipped. I've found a cheep supplier in Trenton ($3.10 a gallon), and another in Ft. Wayne ($2.99 a gallon).

I need to know now what the regulations are on storing it. There's only so much you can store, and travel with without having to get a permit. I'm quite sure a 55 gallon drum exceeds that limit and forces you to get a permit.

I get mine at a store called rig equipment and supply. They are a hardware/ piping store and when I worked on the rigs we used to put some in our air lines so any moisture in there would not freeze. it was only like 7$ for a 5 gal bucket. So, I wonder if any air hose sales place/ fittings carriers could have it in stock... that is it i guess

Race tracks are usually good places to pick up the methanol, but as you stated, they usually capitalize on it, and the charge you out the wazoo.
