Default Re: NHRA racing gas just got cheaper.Maybe?

Sunoco is the official fuel of the IHRA and as I recall their fuel was priced reasonably. At the time it was around $7.00 a gallon.

Hopefully the NHRA will quit using VP traction compound.

See you at the races,

NHRA national events have not used VP traction compound for at least the past 8 years.
They use PJ1 what use to be known as VHT.

EXCEPT!! at the Bradenton Pro Am. Bradenton normally sells fuel out of their own pumps and although I don't go there often, remember they had reasonable prices. At the just completed Pro-Am they had locks on the pumps and had a fuel vendor selling 5 gal pails of Sunoco. He was selling 110 for $14 a gallon!! Sad thing is the same vendor has an office over here by me and if I go there and pick it up I can buy the same for quite a bit less. I know they paid a vendor fee but it didn't sit well with me that the track "endorsed" the racers getting hosed on fuel during that race. Lesson learned.
