Well someone in another thread mentioned the Buffalo Air Park on Clinton St. The fuel there is NOT C16 and it is NOT unleaded.

They sell what is called AVGAS 100LL - aviation fuel, 100 octane, low lead content. It is inexpensive compared to true race gas, it works okay for nitrous and you can get away with it in a pinch. It has lead so it will be harder on O2 sensor

We have 112 unleaded for anyone that wants it. 8.50/gallon for comparison.  
Unleaded fuels are safe for catalytic converters and oxygen sensors. Leaded fuels are not.

They have C12 (leaded) and will not order C16 in. They don’t offer anything unleaded over 93. I talked to them a couple weeks ago.

No pump sells leaded fuel anymore. Except for special purpose. Delta Sonic by law cannot sell leaded fuels. They have a totally different nozzle as well.

If there are seriously this many people asking about leaded I will put together and order for C16 and we can all have it for dealer price. I don’t really care. I have a large order of 114 Pro Race Fuel Pro Mark 5 (unleaded) going in in a little bit if anyone decides they want a barrel of that I really don’t care considering it makes fuel for me cheaper and other guys that race with my name on the car. Everyone wins.
