If you can gas up off the water, gas on the street here is about $2.95 a gallon.

Default Price of Gas

When we filled up last fall on the show Magnum it was running $8.00 per gal for 116 octane...need to call over to the Sunoco depot and see what it is going for now.I will need top top them off for the winter.High octane gas will remain stable longer that regular gas,so I been told. Bud

I think your right, I took my 59 vett to the Woodward Dream Cruise last week, it had a 1/2 tank of 106 Turbo Blue. It was the first time out in 2 years, it has a 372 cu smallblock like the one's in our 32' Skater [Easten Express.] After 2 years it ran GREAT. The bad thing was I couldn't drive it, Dave [ygrowup] here on OSO, had to drive it for me. Race gas dosn't seem to go up & down in price like gas on the street ????????

Hello Bud,

I was up at Infineion Speedway in Sonoma CA last weekend and I think the
Sunoco Racing fuel was in the $4.00 - $6.00 Range
I just walked by the 3 pumps there and they had 3 prices for the 3 grades, surprised me it was so little compared to street gas

Thank you
Jim
