Joey, When I used to run my Chevelle with the .060 over 454 and 12:1 compression I used to purchase 112 Octane Turbo Blue gasoline right from a pump. This stuff wasn't cheap at almost $5 a gallon, but let me tell you what a difference it would make both on the street and at the track! Fuels like that aren't available too many places anymore except at the bigger dragstrips and such. A trend that I see coming around is that many of your larger tracks are also providing NOS refill stations as well. Something that makes me smile :)
Oh, and yes I remember the Green Acres theme song and sing it on a frequent basis when I am out on the tractor mowing my field...LOL Scott W. Thomas, President S.W. Thomas Consultants, Inc.
