Does anyone in town sell or stock race gas? If so, where and what octane. I am looking for high grade unleaded, and 110-112 leaded. Thanks.

Little old Daytona had several gas stations selling 100 - 115 octane at the pump. I would hope that Tampa or St Pete could do better.

I would also advise against using av-gas. Some of it is still leaded and its less volatile for use at high altitudes which keeps it from vaporizing as well in a land vehicle.

What town? In Clearwater, there is a spur station on Hercules a little north or Clearwater Executive Airport on the west side of the road that has 100 unleaded and I believe 112 or 114 leaded. At the corner of Belleair and Highland, there is an Amoco station that also has unleaded and leaded race gas, I'm not sure of the grades though. Those are the ones I know of, I've used the spur station (wayne's corner is the name) for years.

Kyle, I would recommend buying a 55 gallon drum. Its cheaper and easier to get that way and you can do well selling the extra to friends and associates.

Thats what we used to do at the motorcycle shop I worked at so we could fuel up the race bikes and make some money at it at the same time.
