Much easier than you think...I am just waiting for San Antonio, TX to get some in my area of town. Race tracks should start carrying this stuff as the cost will be substantially lower for racers. That means more passes, safer passes, and higher compression ratios can be run with more power...win...win...situation for racers. Probably not so good for DD folks...unless you are an environementalist!
Im gussing we cant get that here in chicago area? I just get 100, or 110 leaded its so damn expensive O yea i spray a 200shot off the break all summer and its going great so far, just put on the dule stage and gonna see what it can do soon

There are alot of people spraying 200 some 250. Just go into it knowing its a toss up and that a 150 is the safety point.
Make sure you have the right tune up and fuel supply. As well as octain.
