I have a delima, my local Sunoco stations are no longer and my Corvette loved that fuel, ran fantastic. I got the time slips with good traps to prove it. Now I have been running BP, well, I got back to the drag strip last night and the car trapped worse than just about ever, and my launches where not bad but not great but I did not have any wheel spin. Under similar conditions with Sunoco fuel my traps where easy 5MPH faster. The air was not THAT bad last night. It definitely does not feel like it is making all the HP it has and I blame the fuel. Hell, when I ran in the spring on 5 month old Sunoco gas with Sta-bil in it I had better trap speeds!!!!
The BP station is a small one and probably does NOT go thru much 93. The Exxon down the road is bigger and might go thru more and that is what is in my tank now. The only other options local to me are Sheetz, Get Go, Kwik Fill, Choice, and a independent known as Keystone. Now the first four are KNOWN to have crappy gas, so no help there. The Keystone station, I'll have to find out about them???
There is a Sunoco station about 13 miles away in Clarksburg, PA but it would be nice to get it closer, but I might just have to make a point to drive down to fill up.
That or I could run the Exxon and add Octane booster every fill up?
I know for a fact it is not running as well with BP gas as it did with the Sunoco, I tired Sheetz for a few tank fulls and it sucked.
The verdict is still out on Exxon.
IDK, what do you guys think?
