I have tried to call the Pride to make SURE they have race fuel, and they have no phone # whatsoever. Not in the phone book, not in 411, nuttin.

I asked the little dude behind the counter and he said they will always have race fuel no matter what, no need to call and make sure.

I'm glad they have it, but man, that place is a shit hole..

Ok Here you go.
VP-110™
Not your "standard" 110! Highest rated MON of any 110 fuel on the market. Formulated for use in naturally aspirated engines with CRs up to approximately 12:1-13:1. Good lower cost alternative.
TYPICAL VALUES
• Color: Purple
• Motor Octane 107
• Research Octane: 113
• R+M/2: 110
• Specific Gravity: .720-.735 at 60?? F




C12™
The best all around racing fuel made. Recommended for CRs below 15:1, satisfying the needs of 75% of today's race engines. One of the winningest fuels in racing history, including NHRA, Modified Tour, GNN, D.I.R.T., Indy Lights, AMA as well as other local and national championships across the U.S. and around the world. Spec fuel for NMRA and NMCA.

TYPICAL VALUES
• Color: Green
• Motor Octane 108
• Specific Gravity: .717 at 60





C14™
Recommended for naturally aspirated engines operating at over 8000 RPMs with CRs of 14:1 and higher. Spec fuel for NHRA Comp Eliminator, NMRA and NMCA.

TYPICAL VALUES
• Color: Yellow
• Motor Octane 114
• Specific Gravity: .696 at 60?? F





C16™
Used in turbocharged engines, blown engines and nitrous applications with CRs up to 17:1. Recommended by the top nitrous oxide companies. Spec Fuel for NHRA Comp Eliminator.

TYPICAL VALUES
• Color: Blue
• Motor Octane 117
• Specific Gravity: .735 at 60?? F





C23™
Recommended for ultimate performance in nitrous oxide applications with CRs up to 18:1. Used in ADRL, Sport Compact, and large 800 CI IHRA-style drag race engines.

TYPICAL VALUES
• Color: Blue
• Motor Octane: 120+
• Specific Gravity: .713 at 60?? F











VP113™
Offering substantial power gains at a competitive price, VP113 is oxygenated to street gas levels. Formulated for naturally aspirated engines with CRs up to approximately 14:1. VP113 makes up to 2% more power than competitive 110 octane fuels, with gains of 3-4% in engine applications with poor or marginal fuel vaporization qualities. Its oxygenation also yields a higher effective octane rating and greater protection against detonation. May require a tuning change, including increase in jet size, for optimum performance.

TYPICAL VALUES
• Color: Green
• Motor Octane 109
• Research Octane: 118
• R+M/2: 113
• Specific Gravity: .718 at 60?? F





Q16™
Q16 will work well in any drag racing application -- naturally aspirated, nitrous or blowers. Q16 is highly oxygenated, requiring a 4-6% increase in fuel flow, which will make 3-5% more power than competitive 116 octane fuels. Q16's oxygenation will significantly expand the range of air/fuel ratio acceptability, so performance will be more consistent and won't vary as dramatically with altitude or density changes. For bracket racers, variations in ET from run to run will be substantially reduced. This added fuel flow also effectively increases its octane by 6-8 numbers above its standard ASTM octane rating.

TYPICAL VALUES
• Color: Yellow
• Motor Octane 116
• Research Octane: 120+
• Specific Gravity: .716


Hope this clears up the VP gas debate. Straight from VPs website.

Really wasn't trying to clear up what is at Russell's. But if you go by the color it is either C16 or C23
