I've seen this on other HiPo vehicles sites, how about a top post that allows us to list locations that have higher octane fuel/race fuel locations?  Having new members joining and being able to find 100 or higher octane fuel might really be a draw.  Lastly, we could have a map, where we can zoom in see what is closest.

Just a thought.

In the meantime, there are definitely resources around the web, especially if you search by the state you are interested in.  Not all in one place though unless you search by the producer/distributor of the fuel.  For instance

http://www.sunocoracefuels.com/
http://www.westernstatespetroleum.com/vp-fuel-locations.html
76 gas stations also used to have race fuel, but I cannot find a link to listings for them.

Then there are the additives/concentrates:

http://torcoracefuel.net/dealers.html
http://race-gas.com/ (DIRECT, but also at Amazon)

VP Racing Fuels products are top notch.

This isn't exactly what you are talking about, but it helps me immensely when I travel

Punch in start and end location, and then use average mileage to determine when/where you need to stop.

I use Shell 93 V-power in my E20 mix as well, and they have a locator/map on their site as well, so I can pick two stations close to each other, mix, and hit the road again!

Around here it's hard enough just finding 93 Octane fuel let alone 100

I use this website (i have even updated it with the gas stations that have 93 in my area)

I wish that all stations had to carry 93, or there was a better way to know. I have traveled plenty of times in my mustang, or the SHO, and had to de-tune in the past, because I go to a station and all they have is 91 or 92, and I don't want to risk it.

Yeah i feel your pain! Exact same problem i have.
And that is why i have started updating this list. Too bad GassBuddy doesnt list octane levels, they just say "premium fuel available" which could mean anything from 91 to 93

Is there any advantage to running a higher octane without a tune to go with it?  For example running 93 octane on a 91 tune.

Possibly. Depending on how aggressive your tune is, if you have any knock on your 91 tune, it could help. Also, most tunes should allow some timing advance if it is not sensing any knock.

My AJP Turbo tunes max out at 3 degrees of additional spark advance under WOT.

There's also some stuff with scaling the spark based on your OAR reading. If your OAR goes more negative (better) with increased octane fuel, it scales the spark somehow. I'm not sure by how much this can  affect your overall timing, though.

Well, thanks to the link to Sunoco search I found a fuel place about 25 miles from my house that sells fuels up to 112!  That is leaded Race fuel of course but they do have bulk 100 octane fuel available, I actually had an account opened today and will be able to get 100 octane fuel for 6.38 a gallon.  Which is high but better than the cost of some of the fuel additives.

Also, just found this site to calculate a proper mix to get the octane you are aiming for.
