High Octane Goodness - Available Where >?
Greetings, ! I wanted to start a thread that would have links to the various moonshiners and distillers of over 82+ octane gasoline.
I know that The Union 76 in saratoga (hwy9 & big basin way )has Sunoco 100. I also found these on the Sunoco 100 website. Kings Union 76 975 Woodside Road Redwood City, CA 94061 (650) 364-9620 Damar Petroleum 1201 Almaden Expwy San Jose, CA 95118 Any others >? |
I didn't know the 76 Station in Saratoga has it. My engine seems to run great on lower octane, but a little bump of 100 octane wouldn't hurt from time to time. :D
|
Just before an autocross I'll stop by the Union Station at the corner of Almaden and Camden for a little 100 octane. Doesn't sound like a good place to have tire work though. :o So who's going to collect prices from these places? Rich

Last time I filled up in Saratoga it was over $7/gallon.

Goodies Speed Shop on Lincoln ave in San Jose, 5 gallon cans
Gottelis Speed shop on El Camino in South San Fransisco, 5 gl jugs 76 station at foxworthy and almaden Expressway. different address than damar racing. Sunol Super Shop, 3004 Andrade Road of 680 on the way to pleasanton, At he pump and in cans. |

Last time I was there, it was about mid-$6/per gallon. |
the saratoga 76 is pricey for sure. -- It would be nice to have some options.
My 5.3L runs fine on 92, but she spools up way faster on a 50/50 mix of 92 and 100. I am just bummed that the 50/50 mix is $50/$50. |
My super duper track car only gets the best 87 octane at the track.

Buy it and burn it while you can... Sacramento is putting a stop on providing Race Gas by the pump to vehicles driven on the street.
Read it and weep: http://www.arb.ca.gov/enf/advs/advs397.pdf |
Is all Unleaded 100 octane gas currently sold at the pump considered "non-complying racing gasoline?"
The advisory references "Leaded and unleaded racing fuel that does not meet the California RFG specifications." Is it possible that the unleaded 100 octane meets the RFG specs? |
Good question Doug -- do we have any Petro-Chemical engineers handy >?
|
This topic has been discussed already. There is unleaded racing fuel sold at the pump now that meets the guidelines. Read the bottom of page 1, which starts "Many refiners..."
The unleaded racing gas that meets guidelines will still be there. ;) |

After reading the PDF, -- So is the stuff sold in 5 gal cans the pure comp stuff >?

Leaded 112 makes an unbelievable difference in my car. I get a full tank after winter service at HFR and I replenish at Thunderhill a couple of times a year.
|
So what kinda high compression, exotic stuff you running that benefits from such high octane, leaded fuel, Dave?
