Braiden tire is supposed to be at all ucr events doing tires, I recall last year they didn't show up to the may event. Mosport usually has the onsite gas avail if you are willing to pay their prices. Shell and sunoco about 20 mins from track and cango about 5 mins from track. bringing fuel cans from the shell is not a bad idea. if you want confirmation contact brad at Braiden tire (link on ucr site). plenty of people will have air if that is what you need.

I drove by the Cango station by the track and it was closed. That was in March.

94 octane is $1.89 at the track. A bit high, but when you need it, you need it.

Seb and David, you can fit 2 25-litre Canadian Tire gas cans in the frunk.

Tire-wise, you can bring your own and get them mounted at the track, or call Braidan ahead of time and get him to bring tires with him.

Among his brands are Michelin and Hoosier.
