You can try getting on the 76 web site. They have a locator which will allow you to specify race gas and get locations. By the way there is one in Manteca (corner of Airport and Louise) which is on the way if you don't take 80.

Hmm really.. i did a search and came up with 28 76 stations and i didnt see one in Manteca... i saw one in i think its fairfield.. but theres no phone number. kinda odd for a big time gas station i think.. I think my best bet since i know its there is to get it the night before.. in san jose off almaden.. But thanks man.. good looking out..

I went to check it out a couple of weeks ago and they had 100 and 110. If you take the 99 route to Sac that you posted elsewhere, take 120 to 99 instead of 4. While on 120 take the Airport Rd exit and go North to Louise. The 76 will be on the right hand corner.

I'm near UC - where in UC is Bob? Can I assume he sells by the gallon, takes VISA? Does he also sell 100+ "leaded" by the gallon?

Thanks,
Randy R...

I find it very hard to believe that you know of every single 5 liter in northern ca. I'm sure there have been a few daily driven turbos.....cafords is like 1 percent of the population of 5.0 owners in northern ca.

Bob Wirth is on Whipple in Hayward on the Union City border. His phone number is (510) 487-3279. His address is 1655 Whipple Road in a business complex. He takes Visa and sells by the gallon. Bring your own cans as he pumps it out of a 55 gallon Sunoco drum. Sunoco is about the most consistent gas you can buy, he uses it to dyno his sprint motors. He sells 104 and 116. I think they are both $5 a gallon plus 8.25% tax.

uhh huh.. wow that saleen turbo seems sweet.. I've heard that turbo cars do make more power but they have more mantanice as well.. dollar per dollar what is better for a stang?? superchager or turbo? or even cheat NOS...

Thanks for all the 100 octane suggestions.. ill stick to my orignal plan for now since i know where it is on alameden.. but ill definaty keep those other places in mind.. Hope to see you guys out at sac.. You can help this 2nd timer get into the 11's and then get thrown out.. by them for not haveing a roll bar [BS flag] [Big Grin]
