Race school day.

It seems hard to wrap my head around nearly $7 for a gal. of gas. If I had to it would be no sweat but if I didn't have to I wouldn't. Course a lot of tracks don't sell anything less. But you could always leave and fill up, especially at lunch.

It is expensive. However, I would pay it in a heartbeat. When I go (and I am going to do this next summer because Mt Tam inspired me) I am going to show up empty and fill up with the 96. You see, in California, we can only get 91 octane max at the pump.

I usually bring 3 cans with me, which is typically enough to get me through the day. Most East cost tracks I've visited sell regular (93/94) for a slight premium and have 98/100 available for $8-$9 a gal. 110 unleaded available for $9-$10.

Of course in Europe gas is nearly 3x as expensive as here so these prices would seem like a bargain
