I keep hearing rumors that we'll get mohawk 94 octane in Edmonton, but alex is right it's 10% ethanol. I don't think there's anything wrong with ethanol other than running a little leaner... but thats a different topic for discussion.

Good god it's cold here. We can make plenty of power in the cold, but traction is now a huge issue .

in CT we have 93. sunocco stations here just did away with 94, for some unknown reason.
and there was one sunocco station that sold 100. i also have a Gulf station locally that has Cam 2 112 leaded.

There's a FEW 76 stations that sell 100 for about $4.50 a gal. Even more octane and higher price at the race track. But otherwise, California is stuck with 91.
That's why I went with water injection.
And once I get my car of the jackstands, I'll get to actually use it!

Ok Guys (Gals). I called the 76 Performance Products several months ago asking them about stations with race gas. They faxed me several pages of speed shops and station locations within 100 miles form where I live. I'm sure they will do that for you too. Here's the number.

I grew up in West Des Moines. There is a gas station in Grimes (just outside of Des Moines) that sels both VP and CAM2 racing fuel. The CAM2 is available at the pump and the VP is available in drums (not sure of the size). Last time I was back (2 months ago) it was $3.75/gal for the CAM2 102 octane.

In the Phoenix area I have only seen one station with 101 @ $3.99/gal. Everywhere else has 91.
