Worst case I've bought it off eBay and Amazon before if I have to... Not what you're asking, but an option worst case

Thanks guys. I tried to see what it would cost to deliver but according to the website they can't deliver to my area. I called MTI racing as they are about 5mins from my shop and the reply was "Actually I have no idea if we sell M1." Vengeance is closer than commerce so I'll give them a call in the morning. Anyone use the snow performance boost juice? It's a 50/50 mix that summit will deliver. $35 for 4 gallons.

Worst case I've used this before when I didn't have time to go get it locally due to the local VP places hours. Surely Vengeance will have some though... they have to go through a ton of the stuff

Cool, thanks for the link. I checked amazon but just saw the boost juice and some other stuff I wasn't sure about. Worst case i'll drive out to commerce and stock up. I just dont have much free time to drive out there so was hoping for a quicker alternative. We will see what vengeance says.

What is so special or different about "M1" methanol ?
Methanol is a straight chemical compound....not like a mixture as with gasoline.
So what makes M1 special vs the bog standard cheap pure methanol from say a chemical supplier ?
Here in UK, a 40gal drum is pretty cheap ( relatively speaking )...the likes of VP methanol would be 10x the price.
I've even seen top fuel and funny car teams in England with the very same drums from the same chemical company stacked near their facilities when racing.
