just buy a second set of rims, millenia rims a pretty cheap and mount your track tires on there....that way you just have to swap sets at the track...

There are 3 Firestone dealers in Omaha, just 22.5 miles from Pacific Junction.

Also I believe one of the sponsors already has tire deals setup for the event. NTB.... yep -- here it is:

Good call.

After all, there is another giveaway of RA1's for those paid through 1/24. With a free set of tires, I'm sure Mike (migs) would do a pretty good deal on rims & deliver them for the expo

Another odd question... IS there a Sunoco gas station near the track or a station that has 94 octane?

No. Sunoco does not market west of Indiana.

Just get tuned for C16 and bring your own cans. That's what the Evo guys do (the loony bastards ).

92 is the best you will get in the midwest...you have to look hard for that at the BP stations.

91 is the 'normal' ULTRA/TOP premium available.

Good advice - bring your own preferred brand of octane boost just to be on the safe side. OR tune to 91 & you'll be just fine when you get passed - DOH!

Not in this part of the Midwest. In the Chicago area, most stations sell premium gas that is 93 octane. A few are 92, but most are 93.
