Race gas availability this weekend?
I'll need to stir up the octane a bit for the size of a shot I am hoping to spray. Does the track sell race gas or does any of the stations near there have it?

When you exit the track and make a right, there is a small gas station a few miles down on the left that has been selling leaded torco for the past few years... You would need a gas can to fill it there since it has the huge nozzle dispensing fuel. The track might have it so hopefully someone chimes in. I wouldn't mind a little extra octane myself

seems like the track has sold it in the past, but you have to catch it when someone is manning the pump. IIRC, they had an old lady come out there for 15-20 minutes last time.. and that was your only window of oppurtunity.

The track fuel station will be open on Saturday from 10 am to 1 pm and un Sunday from 9 am to 2 pm.
The scales will also be open.
Unless someone steps up and bring nitrous to the track, the closest nitrous refills are available at Mobile Audio in Greenville, about 25 miles from the track. Their number is 616-754-1552.
