Why should you be concerned about 1K/barrel fuel? You're going to be running a 302/2V am I right? Put blue Sunoco in it and call it a day!

Price of fuel is going to go up, sometimes I wonder how long does fuel stay "fresh" to pass fuel check over time. Have had fuel that was over 8 months old that passed and failed, have had fuel pass and not pass after a week.

yes VP has went up,but it never was cheap... I have new price list in, a email, but I haven't printed it...Everything has increased in price....
I have used C-11 for many years and never failed fuel check,that wasn't my own fault..
you can't leave it in the cell or a fuel jug between races... I have kept in a barrel or can for 2 years and pass... some was going on 3 years(,last of a barrel) old got borderline..I may switch to C-12 this year if works good for me,save close to $100.00 a barrel over C-11

That yellow car ran quicker on C12 for me.

I get C12 right from a pump at a VP distribution center, the other day I got 15 gallons of fuel and it was $13. a gallon. Since I had seen this link, I asked how much C11 was which they only sell in the pail, it was $102.50. That's just over $20. a gallon, you have to ask yourself if it's worth the slight performance difference over C12 or C10.

I was just saying in general Billy... lol and idk how much is Sunoco Blue for a barrel? I havent priced anything yet as I dont have heat and dont wanna have fuel sitting around here with large temperature changes in the garage... But in general the prices of any racing gasoline are getting crazy but im not VP is getting out of hand but thats just me....

Here you go .In the PA area ... and they'll deliver up to 4 drums for an additional $95 https://petroleumservicecompany.com/...ane-race-fuel/
And, on another note , Australia has outlawed leaded in all motor sports since July 2019, Unleaded only, Including Pro Stock,,, probably here in the not too distant future...
