Default Any Las Vegas addicts (residents not visitors)??? 2 questions.

Just trying to see if there is any PCar representation here in LV (other than the vanity crowd that bought the PCar for all the wrong reasons).

2 Questions:

1. Is there anyplace to buy 93 octance fuel here? Coming from TX where 93 was the standard for Super, here it seems to be 91. OUCH!

2. Any meet and drive's happening here in LV? If not, any interst to start one?

Welcome. I live in Vegas. Also tried to find 93 octane. No luck yet. The Porsche club is very active here. Call me at 876 0445 and I'll fill you in. There is a tech session on Sat. 3/20

David, There are 2 gas stations that sell 100 octane on the west side. I simply throw in 4 gallons of 100 and then fill with 91. Walaa, 93.

They are both 76 stations, one at Sahara and Durango the other at Flamingo and Fort apache.

Steve has a chart about 1/2 way down this page,

See you at Carls Place on the 20th.

Great minds and all that. Thank you. I just today got on the Union 76 web. I saw the West Sahara location and called. She told me it was W. Sahara and Fort Apache. I went there and they told me to go to W. Sahara and Durango.

I just came back from there. Tried for 4 gal. my tank was full, but it too 2.3 gal. I'll burn a bit off and go back.

Thanks you, where are you in town here?

Wow. West Sahara and Ft. Apache would have been great. I am out in Summerlin. Oh well, durango isn't but a few more blocks. At least we have options! By the way, did you get my PM? Not sure if I have this whole thing figured out yet. Nonetheless, let's chat in the next couple days. PM what our schedule is like and I'll give you a ring.

Cheers,
Dell
