A list of their fuels, find a local dealer and they can likely get you setup with some 5 gallon pails. They come handy and are no problem to store in the garage.

Wasn't sure if Tommy had gas at the shop or not. If I remember correctly that is pretty close to your area. He or MTI would be the only places close to you, atleast that I can think of. Over on my side of town we have HOPs, which is where most of the people buy the drums from.

To One love and Powel, thanks. I will experiment w/ mixing 104 (is $6.50 per gallon, pumped directly into my car from MTI) and Octanium w/ 93 and see which one gives the best most cost efficient results. It seems that the absolute best gas is the VP 109 from Tommy, although I can only get it in 5 gallon containers. I will get some of that and use it for when I go to Angleton in March (Supra Nats). I may also experiment w/ mixing it w/ 93 for DD purposes.

Oh and you can get 109 in 5/15/30/54, just like any other VP fuel.

Sean, Tommy will take care of you...you can mix all day long, just get some 5 gallon barrels (Tommy sells those too) and fill them up and take them home. You can bring those to MSR Houston in March. Also, you can do a 50/50 mix of pump and 109 for the time being...

Peter,
I am going to go see Tommy in about 5 minutes. Going to top my tank of w/ the vp 109. Hopefully by tomorrow I will notice it when The Porsche Docs get together.
I will determine best results by the butt dyno.
