Default Who sells 100+ oct for the cheapest around Lakeland?

I'm new to the area and the cheapest I've found is $6.90 for 100oct at the Harden blvd Sunoco.

Thanks, Eric

I buy Torco race fuel, from a club member, in a 5 gallon drum and mix it with 93 octane to get a 102 rating. If you can't find anything you may want to go that route.

.

If you don't mind me asking, how much is a 5 gallon can? How do you break down the mix?

Thanks

That's awesome. Thanks Racer. You're right about not cheap. In Illinois I found 100oct for $7 and shopped around and found 110oct for $4

You can typically find it at race tracks, there's at least two in Lakeland I'm pretty sure, and it's usually cheaper than the street gas stations, just have to catch them on days they're open.
