I saw on CNN that oil is 125.00 a barrel this morning, that at the current price it

would be 55.00 for a 15 gallon fill up. In the mid 90's I was paying 75.00 for 15

gallons of R F.

Holy dodo, how much is it now? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

On Wed. I paid $99 for 15.* gal of 100tt race gas, $6.25/gal. Did not notice what the price of the 110 was.

A local gas station down the street from the AtllantA Dragway sells it for 6.25/110*

The price of race gas hasn't followed the trend of pump gas, in the early 90s I was buying Race gas for around 5 bucks a gallon when pump gas was only 87 cents/gallon here..

Ouch...Is this price pretty common?

I guess it was good I got my racing in back then.

Just paid $7.50/gal for 110 @ Laguna Seca

The killer was paying $4.19/gal for the tow vehicle!! 454 pulling a 20 foot enclosed trailer eats some fuel!

Trick 110 is $6.35 a gallon. Sonoco is $8 something for 115. I just bought 30 gallons of Trick and I think it was $220ish?

Race gas prices are starting to seem like a bargain. I used to be horrified at 6something a gallon but not anymore at $7.50

Yep.. soon we can run 12:1 on the street because the price of fuel will be so damn close that the extra power and cooling will be a benefit!
