Hoods auto parts here in Ft. myers carries VP race gas, as well as refills n2o. Kind of a long drive for you though.

on palm beach blvd (sr80) About 3 1/2 -4 miles west of I-75 on the right . I'll see If I can find the #. The downfall is that I believe they only sell in 55gal drums. So you'd need to bring a truck.

sunoco here in sarasota has 100 and 110, and in lake wales sunoco has 100, am not sure where wesley chapel is but those are the places I know of w/it, it seems to be a trend w/sunoco so maybe when you drive by one, pull in and see, most likely they will have it

the 100 octane is actually unleaded and they also have 110 leaded.

the 110 cannot be pumped directly into your car, you have to bring a seperate container where the 100 can be pumped directely into your car.

the gas station is located on US27 aka okeechobee and sheridan street.

Xylene or Toluene from Sherwin Williams. It's like 120 octane or something. And it's safe to run in your car. I am sure someone that knows a lot about this stuff can fill you in. I use Amoco 93 on low boost and C16 on high.
( 15psi=my high boost )

VP Fuels is right off of interstate 95. You would get off at Oakland Park Blvd. and head east. Head North (Left) on Andrews Ave. and you will see it on your left hand side. Might want to call ahead becasue there hours are limmited.

Okeechobee is also near the park but a bit out of the way. Its pretty easy to get there. if you are on 75 (Actually travelling West) but the signs say 75 North - Naples, you get off at US 27 - South - Miami. The gas station will be on you left hand side on Sheridan Street. Its a good ways down.

My suggestion would be VP fuels, better selection and not out of the way.

Negative on Sunoco. I went there last night and ALL of their fuel over 93 is LEADED. Including the 100. Its AVV gas for airboats and stuff. The lady was funny there because shes like " it has less lead then the 110 so its ok to put it in your car". I laughed in her face and walked out. Granted she didnt realize I was laughing AT her and not with her lol

You do know that C-16 from VP is leaded, right?

Nah I didnt. I never have the need for that anyway. My engine never knocks or pings under any circumstances anyway. The most I use 100 just for assurance.

the earlier the better. The food will be ready around 1 pm but when Kandela and I first set this thing up, we did not take into consideration the daylight savings time change. it gets dark around here at 7PM.
