Took Blue out for it's final ride before sleeping for winter. (By time I put snow blower in garage, I got almost zero room to work underneath). Saw a VP Fuels Gas station along way, so figured see if could get some race gas to fill tank with (forgetting ethanol free gas is banned here unless at track and put in jugs). Highest octane available, 91. They become car washes and overpriced convenience stores..
I love Mopars so much I'm date coding the skid marks in my underwear.

So did you get some "race gas"? I was going to buy some 110 leaded from my local VP gas station, they wanted $95 for 5 gallons so I passed and got it at the track for $7 a gallon cheaper.
If a man speaks while in his garage and his wife does not hear it, is he still wrong?

Naw... just a bottle of Coke Zero....
Used to be able to get 104 octane Sunoco unleaded at some stations you could pump right into the car. It was like $6 a gallon 15yrs ago.

I run pump gas in my Challenger on the street and run VP NO2 or Q16 on spray. May try some C25 next year.
