any racing heads in here?

Guys I need to find gas stations around new york that sell 100 octane gas... I knew about one place few years back but they don't sell it anymore... I really need to know, so if you have friends who are into racing and tweak their cars or if you one yourself and know the answer to my question it would be much appreciated if you gave me the info
or maybe you know about a local forum on the web... I'm posting here because I know a lot of local folks are lurking these forums...

Thanks for your valuable info... and to answer your question - no..

gas is too expensive as it is. Pick up a cheaper hobby. This is coming from an ex-car guru. 99% of the people I find looking for 93+ octane don't know what octane does/is and don't need it anyway.


Posted by Vikingus on Nov-06-2007 14:06:

Well I do and I need it hehe... believe me if I didn't need it I wouldn't be looking for it... I'm installing a piggyback (actually it's an upgrade to what I already have)in my car that will increase the boost of the turbos but to have it working smoothly I need higher octane gas to mix it up with 93 to give me something around 96 octane.. I'm just testing out a product for someone, will have it for few days, make a few runs on a track this weekend and give him my feedback.

Thanks for your concerns but I like my hobbies and as you may know most fun hobbies are a bit pricey.

And if you are reeaaallly serious - you know you can buy it by the drum right? And I think they even may store the drum for you if you have no space I think ... At this point you might realize that you probably have a problem

lol,yeah I know about drums but that is just a bit too much hehe... I tried that Sunoco's station locator but nothing shows up withing 50 mile range, but thanks for the info. If I have to I will go down there and get few gallons... road trip? but call and confirm first...
I've bmw 335i twin turbo - nice car with great modding potential ...

Do you have any bikes now, I'm in for a ride... I could never drive one though to afraid of them, that is too quick.

yeah 3-4 years ago they had one in bk but they stopped selling it. I think sunocos still have them I just need to find those that do have them.

I would bet that Freehold location is good, since it's close to Englishtown (drag racetrack). Where are you located?


Posted by EarnYourKeep on Nov-06-2007 15:04:

worst case just ride out to etown im sure you'll find 100oct, it shouldn't be too hard to come by as long as you got the cheddar.

btw what mods are you testing? new turbo? what boost you running and fuel mgmt system? im guessing ur dynoing then track testing?

Yeah, I have an 02 Yamaha R1 (The Beast) and a 05 Ninja 250 (70mpg and twistie queen!) The Yamaha is a goner next spring, picking up a Honda CBR (1000?) maybe.

I'm down for a ride anytime (anytime it's above 50 degrees that is)

O yeah - 335i TT = sweet car without any mods (but I know once u have the bug you can never leave it stock )

E-town they have 100 race gas for about $8.50 gallon

I'm in W. Orange and I spent unmenitonable amounts of money at Etown Raceway Park ... fun times. I like Atco occasionally now (more bike action)

Right by my parents in Long Island..Exit 17S off the Southern State. Right off the exit, gass station immediately on your right...they sell Cam2 100 & 110 Octane racing fuels.


Posted by Vikingus on Nov-06-2007 15:35:

I'm in queens, that is about 40-60 minutes drive to etown, I really could use something closer... I'll keep looking I guess...

I'm not gonna dyno I just want to take it a track and see how it performs...

dizzy, if the weather holds up I guess we can figure something out.

Etown is definitely fun. Is there an auto-x course at Atco? Would love to see how the s2k does on one

Dude you rock, that is about 20 minutes from me

I used to work at Sunoco Corporate, I used to get the GT Purple 100 octane all the time, I can ask to get drums and cost if needed.
I used the 94 octane, but they dont make that anymore...
I use the 93 in my Triumph Daytona and the Porsche with no issues..
You might need to remap your bikes for the octane boost (I have a programmable one)..also a chip in the Porsche can remap higher octanes for diff. combustion rates,etc.....

How about Sunoco locations where they sell 100 octane gas in NY

I did an Auto-X event at Atco in 06 - I'm sure they probably still have it (auto-x events are usually held where ever there is a big parking lot) Their website is www.atcorace.com ... S2Ks are sick at auto X, you will have a blast spanking Miatas out there.

There is also an auto-x website that lists where all the events are every weekend - This is the best source for solo 2 (forget the website though, something like autox4u ??)
