Speedway Race Fuels 602 276-9250

I called Sunoco.
55gal drum @109oct = $292 + $25 delivery + tax = $340

As soon as the spec is gone, i will be buying a drum of this if anyone else is interested! i went and filled up with 91/101 again the other day because the car pings pretty noticeably with just 91 now. and 101 is $5.49/gal at Mobil x 55gal=$301. so for $40 more you get +8 octane and delivery. :D

Don't forget the $20 drum deposit, and the $16 charge for a pump... that breaks easily, so be careful! My bill was about $376 or so.

I need to get mine refilled, but the fock if I have the money. Definitely need it now that the heat is coming.

I usually mix about 2 gallons of 109 with 13 gallons of 91 to get my 93.5 mix. Runs noice.

yeah thats what i want, a nice mix around 94 octane...especially with the heat coming. my car has suffered from detonation on 91 from when it was new. :x

I think I'm going to buy a 55gallon drum of 118 octaine leaded gas... I have no cats, and I'm sure the o2 sensors can handle it for track days.

Richard @ DynoComp reffered me to Union Distributers (602-272-6795)

118octaine 55gal drum = $475.75

114octaine 55gal drum = $379.50

There is a $20 barrel deposit and you have to get your own pump... but 118octaine is kickass!

where do you get the pump? i have space now, but i still want unleaded.

Union Distribution only carries 100 octain unleaded race fuel... best to go to Sunoco for the good stuff.

I called Speedway Race fuels just a sec ago and they are a bit more expensive than Union, but did have unleaded 108 octaine for $6.20 a gallon which is $321.35 for a drum... Not too bad IMO

I used to get 110 at Texaco, I-17 & Deervalley, but I never paid attension to the brand, I just know it was purple, I seen the station at Cave Creek & Union Hills has "race gas" but I havent stopped in to see what octane or how $$

Purple stuff is leaded.... I got the barrel home, that effer is HEAVY!!!!!

09-15-2005, 06:40 PM
eeeew leaded... yikes. I looked for the station off the 101 and cave creek, but couldnt find one that had 100+ at all. Do any of you know where exactly it is and what company it is?

Cave Creek & Union Hills, northwest corner

I built a racing go-ped for the kid (many moons ago) and it would'nt run on anything less the 110, I tried getting fuel from Deervalley airport once and that thing ran like shiet!
so is the blue stuff un-leaded?

pickinicholas
09-16-2005, 08:19 AM
I dunno, are you talking about how VP rates them or the actual color of the fuel?

yepee
09-16-2005, 12:30 PM
I've seen blue fuel, but i dont know what octane it was, I was just thinking if the purple was leaded, maybe the blue was un-leaded :?
I'am going to try the place on Cave Creek and see what they have, car is running a little sluggish, maybe it will help
