Race fuel junkies and huffers step inside

There is a thread in the Camaro5 Fest section from Mr Jeff Conley, Operations Manager for Lucas Oil Raceway...

In it, I asked about available fuels and other items our cars might need and his response is in the following thread...

Pop in to check and see if what you need is available or not... Could save you some heartache or last minute tuning for different octanes... The fuels they sell are available in five gallon buckets... so bring along a funnel if you have room... If not, there will probably be others with one you can borrow... I'll have one for example.

The one thing mentioned is that they do not fill nitrous cylinders at the track facilities...

I'm going to look around and see if there are any shops in the area that do so...

I won't need any for myself, my car will be full of 104, but I'll have 10/15 extra gallons if someone needs it. It helped out at Pony Wars.

I use Sunoco GT Plus. Which is 104 unleaded.

As long as the pee is 104 or better octane...

109 (tank) and 117 (fuel cell) in my case...

Thanks Robert, It looks like I may have to pick up a spare Nitrous Bottle and get it filled before I go... I don't want to miss out on any of the activities !!

Keith,

I have a list of three vendors in the area that fill nitrous bottles... I'm going to take two bottles with me, and they may be filled before I leave, if not, there are available places up there...

Here is what I found within 6 or so miles of the track...

And I'm still waiting for a racing conditions report on the clutch...

Most probably...

109 in the tank, C-16 in the cell to mix with nitrous.
