Any interest in sharing 55-gal race gas drum?

Buying 104 octane in 5-gal jugs is a pain and my garage is too cramped for a drum. Not to mention, it would last a really long time and I don't want to mess around with that. If anyone consumes race gas now, I'm willing to go in on the purchase of getting a drum. BTW, I am in South OC.

55 gallon drums seem to have a high evaporation factor and hard to store and move close to the car when filling. I use a pump 5 gallon cans. They store better and don not evaporate since I use the entire 5 gallons.

I agree with the evap factor. But I figured if 2-3 people go in on it, it will be consumed in a short time and that shouldn't be an issue. And as far as filling, they have pumps that you can use that would make it easier. I find using the pails is a 2-man job and is a pain with spills and such. Anyway, it was just an idea...

I also use a pump with the 5 gallon cans.
