Beech Bend has a fuel station that is Sunoco 110 i believe. If they don't have it for some reason there is a shop that has Sunoco fuels that will be open monday through saturday for sure and I know a VP dealer personally that I can get VP 113 and C16 from 24 hours a day.

You could get with a distributor and pay for Renegade ahead of time. Renegade is based in Bowling Green...

They have a 118NOS and I can get it in 5gal pale's in BG.

VP C-23 is a little better than VP N02.

We went from N02 to C23 and were able to add a little timing and the car picked up ET and MPH.

Good luck !

Other way around ... C23 is a little cooler burning, thats why we could add some timing after we switched.

Closest place to get e85 is Clarksville, rivergate, or Nashville, all of those cities are
in Tennessee. The track has 110 sunoco as well as a couple places within 5 miles
of the track.
