Its not listed on either of their websites.
I didn't think about calling them.
(I'm reluctant to call during work.)
I did more searching and found it on PFYC's site, but they want $13 and I've seen it on plenty of non-sponsor sites for under $10. I need 2 bottles so that would end up being a $6 difference (not much I know, but every dollar saved is a dollar I can use elsewhere). If no other sponsor carries it, I might get it from them anyway.
Thanks for the help.

FYI...if you can find "Type 200" in your local stores you can save yourself a butt load of cash..its the same stuff but w/o the blue color...

Both are about 7 bucks in my Autozone store...

ATEŽ Super Blue and
ATEŽ TYP 200 Brake Fluid:
ATEŽ Super Blue (DOT 4) has a dry boiling point of 536F and a wet boiling point of 396F.
ATE Super Blue is identical in specification to the ATE TYP 200 brake fluid.
ATE Super Blue or TYP 200 is compatible and will mix with MOST DOT3, DOT4, or DOT 5.1 Fluids .
This top-of-the-line product lies
20 °C over the DOT 5.1 standard and surpasses this standard in nearly all the other requirements as well. This means that cars can go without a brake fluid change for up to 3 years while products with a lower wet boiling point have to be replaced considerably more often (e.g. DOT 3 products should be replaced annually).
Over the lifespan of the brake fluid - the ATE fluid maintains an overall higher thermal temperature rating.
This higher temperature range means a better brake fluid that will last longer in street applications and withstand higher temperature ranges.
Also, the blue tint of the fluid makes bleeding brakes easy! You can easily tell when you have flushed out the older fluid.
TIP: Racers frequently will alternate fluid flushes using both the SuperBlue and TYP 200 (Amber). The identical specifications of the fluid and difference in color makes it easy to know when you have completely flushed old fluid out of the system.

I didnt know AutoZone carried it.
I didnt see it on their site.
I wanted the blue so I can more clearly see when the fluid has been flushed.
