Not always...I paid $4.65 a gallon for 110 at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham about 3 weeks ago. I was sorry I did not have more jugs to fill up before I left there. But, usually you are right.

From the Bird's Racing board:
QUOTE
Jason: 110 octane at Road Atlanta was going for $7.80 a gallon in early March when I was there and purchased some. The 100 octane they were selling was $6.80 a gallon.

I don't know if it has a bearing on race fuel but we typically have one of the lowest gas rates in the nation. Right now regular unleaded us around $1.98 a gallon. I might have to make it over to the Mitty race if the weather is nice.

You are right I usually skipping fuel in Tennessee and try to fuel up in GA when going that way. I actually have noted which exit to fuel at since prices vary from area to area. The price difference is in the tax structure. However that does not effect race fuel since it is not road taxed. I think it has to do with captive market and concessionrights at different tracks. I can buy 110 locally for $3.76 a gallon by the drum. I hate to haul it but.....I am cheap.
