See I would If I had the type of fuel close by. The pump where I get the 100LL is about 5 mins from my house and the pump guy just lets me pull my car right in and fuel up. Also right now they just brought the price down to $3.89.

I'm glad someone finally posted the lead content for 100LL, according to those figures its actually lower in lead then, though race fuel that uses lead is also normally at least 10 points higher in octane...
