Yeah, I'm going to try hard and find a filling station for 100.
If not, I'll try and find some 93 without the ethanol and other junk to mix 50/50 Only 'ethanol-free' I know are at the marina's... And that means the east side...

Scott, go to Roadkilltv.com and register there. all the info is there tech 12-4 action starts at 4 and runs till 10.
I got registered , just looking for some wheels for my street tires now.
Gary. Just got mine swapped over... Who replaces 325 drag radials with 275 street tires for a "race"!? Should be fun Passed the Dome this morning, looks like they have barrier walls and a fresh patch for the launch/burnout

I am at a loss on that as well, I suppose to keep the fast cars out or substantially slowed down...
It seems they only really reply to questions on facebook, and when I asked:
"NO – Slicks, Cheater Slicks, Drag Radials, Non–DOT Tires"
So DOT drag radials are out?
That's correct, no drag radials.

I only have Hoosier QTP's and I'm not going to take a chance and apply all my horses to measly street skins. More dangerous that way. I'd trust a fast car on slicks/DOT Cheaters more than same fast car gone drunk on street tires with no bite. There was just a commercial on channel 2 about the Silver Dome event.... he said(I forget his name but he does the drag week stuff) that 7000 people have signed up for the event... thought I heard there was only going to be 150 car... but its FULL

Maybe i'll spray them with some dr pepper

Ill bolt the drag radials back up and head out for the rest of the week.
I know of a 100 unleaded station down in Livonia. Why wasn't Turbo Blue working for ya?

I was out last night up and down Woodward and finally shacking up for a bit at the Shell station between 13 and 14th mile.
I'll be out today at Silverdome and hopefully can run with what I've got out back as far a as tires. Will try and make the Donut Cutter later or in between or all together if I get disqualified at the Dome.
The next time I'll be out will be Saturday at the Chrysler display on 13th Mile and Woodward. I've been invited to come represent.
Was a cool crowd last night till the drizzle came in which I used to get a free car wash and wipe down while yapping.LOL. I hit the Shell station quite a bit.. I was down there a couple of days ago with my buddy.... I painted the front end so I'll put that on tomorrow ... getting close to being done
