Citgo Racing Gasoline

[walker054]

Anyone else use it? $5.60 per gallon, vp was $63-$64 for 5 gallon


Designed for high-performance engines operating at high rpms with compression ratios up to 16:1, this 110 octane-leaded racing fuel is produced at the CITGO-operated PDV Midwest Refining facility in Lemont, Illinois. It's the perfect partnership, combining more than 40 years of CITGO experience and the refinery's pioneering work in the blending of racing gasoline.

Safety is as important as speed, CITGO tests every batch of CITGO racing gasoline at the point of manufacture to ensure consistent results with every gallon you buy. In addition, the gasoline's red color readily shows fuel distribution during a teardown.

If you're ready to outrun the competition, hurry to CITGO for top-quality racing gasoline. The race is on.

theirs a BP down the road with 100 octane, idk how much it is.

why does it say "In addition, the gasoline's red color readily shows fuel distribution during a teardown."
do you have to shake it up?

Where are you purchasing the Citgo fuel? Thanks.

[walker054]

Two different places have it so far, Triangle Gas on route 8, and the Texaco Gas station beside the old summit diner on 422 across from B&R Trailer sales.

[Hondacrf15]

Thanks. Triangle is close. I spoke to Purvis Fuels. VP C-12 is 10.58/gallon. Man has it gone up since I last purchased some. Let me know how the new motors running.

[walker054]

I also called Butler Petroleum, they have a store (mini mart) on route 19 in Portersville that sells race gas, not sure of the brand yet, $5.39 a gallon.

i use it, i got a 55 gallon drum off 110 octane from campbell oil in wooster OH for 211 bucks. used it for the 12 hours, and didnt notice anything unusual when we tore the motor down. for as chep as it is, i'll stay with it

[walker054]

I was going to try VP until I saw the price, Kibuk cycle in Kittanning was +$63 for 5 gallon and Rod George was aroung the same, I am going to check at Hetrick's next time to see where he buys their Citgo, they get it in 55 gallon drums. I hate to get more than 10 gallons at a time. that should be enough for at least a couple days of riding.

[bradley300]

i dont like getting so much at a time, but its so cheap. have you thought about buying a drum and splitting it with friends? helps get the good $$$ per gallon, with out having feul laying around getting weak
