I just got a drum today. Super nice guys to deal with. Just make sure you call ahead the day of pick-up. I showed up and had to "come back in an hour or two. We don't have anyone here to mix it up and get it in a drum for ya". 1.5 hours later, there was a drum sitting on the dock waiting for me. I hope it's good

That's what he said. Scared me to death! For a minute. When I returned he said , "sorry about that, but we deal in bulk and I didn't have anyone available to get you a drum". I'm assuming they must have a big 500 gallon tank that they pull from? I should have asked more q's, but they are a big company doing lot's of biz, and they treated me pretty good. p.s., it SMELLS LIKE RACE GAS
They do have a 2500 gal tank they pump from. Team is the huge distributor in the area so I'd think their quality would be as good as it gets. Go pay a few bucks more a gallon if ya want, but i'll take this deal. I just talked to "Brad" to have him "mix" me up a drum. I was like, mix what up?, what you adding to this stuff? He's like, no, just putting it in a drum and labeling it is "mixing" it up. He said it's plenty fresh and they sell plenty to OHVers all summer, but usually in 5 gallon cans. The drum thing is not what they normally do and when they do it's normally still full rate. He did say that it's a one time thing and he'll honor the deal, but he thought he'd be selling 12 drums all at once. Wasn't too thrilled about dealing with this many people and having to mix up a drum every other day. This is a great deal and many thanks to Jim for setting it up. Get it while it's cheap fellers, cuz it may be the last time for this deal.
well ur right he aint to happy about this deal i told him in the beging that all of us probally cant show up to get this all to gether so i asked if we can just come in and pick are own up and he was tottaly cool with that but now he said he has had close to 30 calls in the last week to get race fuel at this price and now he is hot so who ever got there gas at this awsome price enjoy it cause we aint getting it any more for that price and u know what suck about it all is i aint even got mine yet damm the luck
Yeah, he made a deal and now he's getting a little heat is probably all. Boss needs a new lear jet, so a 300% markup isn't enough. After all, our great ***gin CEO's in this country need to make...what is it...like 460 times what their average worker makes! 40 years ago that number was 46 times! Wonder why America is goin in the chit hole!!! I don't.

Yup. What ^ said Kudos to Brad for keeping the deal though. He could have said, sorry that was for a one time, one purchase deal. As long as my motor doesn't "choke" on this stuff, I'll be back

Sorry for the rant, just had lunch with our venerable CEO! and he's a Super Lib, especially when it comes to money. We split the check 
Picked up a drum, add 6.9% sales tax, so $333.92. I called early, but wasn't "mixed" up when I got there and no Brad. The other guy's know the deal. Watched him "Mix" it up from my truck with my Binocs. Weird...didn't know "race gas" was 99 parts regular unleaded and 1 part something in a 1/2 gallon can that said "Essence of race gas" te he. Na, came right out of a tank that said Chevron Track Tek 111. Same tank where they have always filled up my 5 gallon cans from. Truck has the camper on, so took in the old Bronco II. Kinda tricky getting that 400 pounds in there laying over. Didn't leak though. I should be good for about 20 tanks worth now
I wouldn't worry Ike, for that price you can put in extra What'd you pay for those other two barrels Can't wait to get it out for a wicked road ride. lol

Maybe the guy was trying to sound all high tech or something. Mixing it up, like a highly skilled chemist. I dunno, maybe the guy was going to lunch or to pork his girlfriend and didn't want to take 15 minutes to pump a barrel full and load it. Prolly just didn't like Ike bossin him around. bwahahahaha. J/k buddy. What it is, is Chevron Track Tec 111 that comes in a tanker truck that dumps it into their 2500 gallon tank, that says..."read the above" on it.
