Default Best place to purchase race fuel online? (Or in Redmond Wa!)

Searched around here and a bunch of web sites... I don't seem to be lucky to have any pump stations with race gas around here (Redmond, Wa), so I'm looking to see where the best place to get race fuel in 5/10 gallon pails is - preferably from an online source.

Anyone have good history with a certain site?

Best I found was $56 for Sunoco 100 Unleaded, plus $27 handling and $70 (!!) shipping (UPS ground). That's about $30 a gallon total, which is insane.


This thread had some reference, but it doesn't seem relevant anymore: https://rennlist.com/forums/944-turb...endations.html

anyway, check out VP fuels, looks like they sell online:

http://www.vpracingfuels.com/racing-fuel

also, these guys are in your general area, and the owner's a car guy (IIRC he has a GT2). if nothing else maybe they can tell you where to go.

at the 76 station just North of 15th and Auburn Way
The race gas is at the south west pump facing the street

Find your local speed shop for dirt/asphalt oval cars and I am sure they have race fuel. Or you can always get it at a sled shop or motocross shop.

FYI for WA peeps: the Shell station in Thrashers Corner in Bothell still sells race fuel. 101 unleaded is $10.75. They have leaded as well. They aren't at pumps, so you have to go and pay and then they open a room for you where they pump it.
