VP at Belle Rose???

SS3718 · 03-09-2009, 01:09 PM

Probably a dumb question, but just wanted to clarify. Will VP be at the Cajun Sportsnationals?

Does anyone know if the price of C-11 has increased/decreased from last year?

Thanks,

The track stocks it. It has gone up to $11.00 but was still cheaper than the $11.75 I paid off the truck in Baton Rouge.

Hi George,
Do you know how much C-16 is at the track? Jim

s10stocker · 03-09-2009, 02:45 PM

Hey Jim. Just called NPR. Also $11.00 a gal. Hope this helps.

I dont know about belle rose. But I checked on a drum of vp c-12 here in the dallas area and it is 500 plus dollars, i think right at 520. So therefore I am switching too a different brand.

I assume the track carries all blends of VP gas. Specifically I'm going to need C-14 when I get down there. Thanks

Better have Tech check what you buy before you use it. (I usually do anyway) I got burned the last time I was there. Cost me a set of pistons. I was in a hurry & some employee opened a new drum that was supposed to be C-14. I took him at his word & got c-12 or a mix of something.. Color just didn't look right. It didn't work too well with my 15.2 -1 compression. I couldn't figure out why it fell off so much in the semis. No one seemed to care that a mistake was made when I had the fuel checked. So it was my fault. That and another issue with an extra $ 75 on the entry is why you guys will have all the fun without me. Not trying to be sour grapes, but I just don't like to go to places that I have a black cloud hanging over me. Hope you guys have a great time.
