I usually pick it up at TT but it's a little too far for me. I need it this weekend. Is there any place around Orange County? Thank you in advance.

Thank you but I have a lot of shit to work on tomorrow and Friday. ;) But again, thank you very much for the offer.
My situation is that I'm going to the drag at CalSpeedway Fontana on Saturday early morning (around 7:00AM) and I think no shop is open at that time yet. If TT is open that early I'll stop by and get it from them too.

There’s a shell station near the Pomona drag strip that sells C-16 (the 5 gallon containers). I was hoping someone else would know where to get it in Orange County, but this place will be closer than TT for you. Anyway, the place is on the corner of Arrow Hwy. and White Ave in La Verne. Here’s the address:

1808 N WHITE AVE
LA VERNE, CA 91750-5660

You might want to call before you drive over there just to make sure they will be open that early and to make sure that they have the C-16. Their number is 909-593-7015. Good luck!

Well C-16 is a fuel specificaly made by VP. C-16 is a leaded gas and the regular vp 100,101.103,109 are unleaded. C-16 is made for the big doggs with high compression or huge turbo's superchargers that want to run realy high boost for big numbers and be safe with no detonation here is what is says on VP site

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.

• Color: Blue
• Motor Octane: 117
• Specific gravity: .735 at 60° F

Well it will damage teh O2 sensors but over time not a one time deal. As for the cat I hear u can run leaded gas with a cat a few times before it will clogg the hell out of it. If I were in your shoes for safe measure I would throw on a Test pipe and test away no use taking a risk with the CAT.

good luck on your testing. Are u gona just test on stock car or with tunning? details please

You also could check for high octane gas at airports. It wouldn't hurt to hit up the Fullerton airport or long beach.

Another thing to consider when using leaded gas is that it eats up your fuel lines if it sits too long.

This may be too late, but just thought to give a suggestion.

Haha thank for the suggestion but the c16 always burned out at the drag and on my way home. However, my wideband sensor started going out recently.
