dirtydownunder Posted August 2, 2012 Report Posted August 2, 2012 c14 = 260$ for 5 gal. c14 = 2000+ for a 44. Quote
SandSlingerOR Posted August 2, 2012 Report Posted August 2, 2012 I just paid $44 for 5 gallons of vp110 at reedsport napa here in oregon. Most places are around $12-12.50 a gallon usually. Sunoco seems to be a bit cheaper but I do not know where to get that fuel at close to me. Quote
lms1977 Posted August 2, 2012 Report Posted August 2, 2012 c14 = 260$ for 5 gal. c14 = 2000+ for a 44. is that what you run jk thats insane and I bitch about the 40-45 for 5gal I pay Quote
dirtydownunder Posted August 2, 2012 Report Posted August 2, 2012 haha why is that funny ? if i spend that on fuel, how much do i spend on other stuff ? i run pump fuel anyway coz im poor. Quote
jbooker82 Posted August 2, 2012 Report Posted August 2, 2012 A lot of these prices are outragious. Last barrel 55 gallon barrel I bought was $315 for Turbo Blue (wich is made by sunoco). I think a lot of the high prices are due to the sellers not getting it directly from the distributors. The more hands it changes the higher the cost because every body wants to make some money. VP can keep their fuel as far as I am concerned. Your just buying their expensive name. VP = Very Pricey Quote
gangstahic Posted August 2, 2012 Report Posted August 2, 2012 For the jersey riders sunoco in brick nj on rt 88 has 110 octane for 9.25 better than extreme machines 70 bucks for 5 gallons Quote

jbooker82 Posted August 14, 2012 Report Posted August 14, 2012 can you get by with LL 100 oct i pay 5$ pg @ local airport. Wich is designed to burn in a low rpm engine at a high altitude. Quote

I know this thread is about VP C12, but i just felt the need to answer a question. I've been running 100LL for two years & love it. IMHO 93 pump gas will hurt your engine before 100LL will. 100LL is not the best fuel in the world for performance, but it is better than pump gas I can promise you that. A few members on here that came to busco seen how the 100LL performed in my 421 cub. Now I believe with 110 race gas it will perform better, but 100LL is closer to me for a cheaper price. Im not fully drag racing yet, but when i do i will be switching to 110 for better performance gains. I think people down 100LL because they dont know how to tune to it. JMHO Quote
