Owning a nice car and saying you arenÔÇÖt able to afford the gas for it is like owning a place at Aspen and saying you can't stay there during the winter because it costs too much to heat the house :roll: .
So quit bitching. </rant>
Nobody that actually tracks their car is bitching about gas prices...
yeah exactly I just thought that might have something to do with people continuing in racing or end up swaying them from even getting into it. From the outside looking in, I tend to think people see it as a big issue, where as Chad stated it clearly isn't. So for every thousand you spend $100 goes to gas. Unless you running 100 octane.
Higher octane fuels are not subject to the price fluctuations that regualr gas is. This is due to the manufacturing process and not the cost for raw materials. VP high octane has remained pretty stable for quite a while now, but I'd rather stick w/ 93 that could cost me 2.50-3.10 vs VP that cost $6/gal.
