Places to get Race Gas
 
You can get 107 octane gas at the Minuteman gas stataion on Harlem Ave. and the Burlington railroad tracks in Berwyn, Il. You know, if your ever in Berwyn on across country trip.

[EDIT: Moved from California thread Places to get Race Gas in SoCal]

There is a Shell station just south of Detroit Metro Airport on I-275(?) that has a pump. Car has to be on a trailer or bring your gas can. IIRC, it's 108 octane.

Thanks, for fix it, it is my home state. Now if I could only get people to pronounce it correctly.

I know, I just had to rub you the wrong way. It's a character flaw. ;)

Try being from Missouri-

If you're from St. Louis it's Mizzou-RE
If you're from Kansas City (and most everywhere else in the state) it's Mizzou-RAH

Dialects are fun. :) If you pay attention and know them, you can often tell where a person is from (at least grew up) within a sentence or too. There are many non-native Californians out here, so I play this game all the time; listening for little quirks.
