Default Sunoco Race Fuel

Is all Sunoco 112 Octane race fuel that some gas stations have(or at least the ones that do have it around here) leaded or unleaded. Friend of mine got some yesterday but the pump did not say whether it was unleaded or leaded. Being that high octane I'm thinking its leaded.....

Sunoco Blue and red gas are both leaded. Red is 116 and Blue is the 112. I have never seen either at a gas station though. Is the fuel that comes out of the pump blue?

yay for the sunoco on 27 cause we can fill up on that stuff and not have to worry about putting it into a container first.

Which race gas does everyone prefer, (not considering cost)? VP, Sunoco, etc....
I went to a VP dealer and got the C12(108 oct.) because someone told me that VP was probably better rather than getting some Sunoco at a gas station that could have been sitting for who knows how long.....

Who's paying $8.40? The VP was $6.80pg. Don't get mad, I'm not saying gas station Sunoco 112 is bad just trying to find out whats the best so I know next time to get the Sunoco or stick w/ the VP....
Whatta ya mean what happened to my avatar, its my dog!!
