Question Where to purchase racing fuels in Dallas?

Besides the race tracks where can I buy racing fuel in the Dallas area?
Preferably along the IH 20 corridor

I get my fuel and nos from Lonestar Performance, they are closer to 635 and Welch area though. Not sure if Gearheads might sell fuel and NOS, they are off 20 and cooper.

Update: It's time to buy. I know Smileys has C16 in Kennedale but does anyone know a closer location to Waxahachie or downtown Dallas?

There is race fuel delivered at a gas pump at a Texaco convenience storel located in Cresson, about 10 miles west of Benbrook.

The drive from Waxahachie to Dallas isn't that much different than to Cresson.

Not sure how close you are to Speedtek, but they carry some.

I have now learned Smileys does not sell C16, only Oxygenated C13.
Matt, yes the track is just down the street as well as Texas Raceway which is likely how I will attain the fuel. Still looking around the office near Love Field as well.
Mitch, sorry man but Cresson is more than double the distance than my drive to Dallas but thanks for the hit.

Im not sure how much you are talking about but I used to get C13 (IIRC) for my 4 wheeler in 5 gallon jugs at a place called Cycle Gear. I think thats the name of it. It wasnt cheap at all though. Probably closer to a rapeing then just paying to much. But this was a few years ago when gas was already way high. Hope this helps.

Thanks Lost, Cycle Gear has a couple locations in Fort Worth but looks like the nearest non racing facility near me that sells the VP I need will be LenMar in Mansfield
