Soccer moms used all our 93 octane in DFW.
 
If your car is tuned for 93 octane only what are you doing for fuel? I've waited in a couple lines to find out there is no 93 or 89 octane whatsoever. Only 87 or heaven forbid 86 octane. Racing octane booster only boost the fuel 3.0 points at best. Looking for options here. I wanted to go to northstar dragway tonight and cars and coffee in the morning. At this point I'm about to say to hell with it all and go fishing. :nopity
Thanks,
Steve

MS109 or Torco is your friend. Add a little sucky gas and add either some MS109 or a small amout of Torco and you're all set until they sort this out.

Thanks my friend! I'm going to get some of that Torco on the shelf for a rainy day. I used Torco gear lube in the axle housing of my 06 Gto. Torco makes good products if you ask me.

It is great stuff.. used it in our C7 before we added meth. We'll be out tomorrow at CNC, maybe we'll see you there.

I was at C&C on Saturday... Good thing I had 1/2 a tank.... I don't drive it much,... I can wait it out for the 93.... I too have a GTO that I DD... I filled it up over in Bonham on Friday w 93... I only live about 7 miles from Classic BMW... Hopefully tankers will be delivering fuel to all of these places this week and we will get back to some kind of normalcy.

We're good now. Cars and Coffee was packed!! Great car show. People were getting crazy leaving the show. Did anyone see that GT350 almost loose it? Straight sideways in the work zone.
You should have seen the Chevron this morning in Corinth by I-35E. They have 93 octane now and all the rustang's, Gto's, Gtr's, Vette's and speed boats were getting gas. I put QT 93 in my car.... :crazy2:
First time for that. Always Mobil, chevron or shell in the past.

Qt's gas is top tier.. I use it all the time. Never had a problem.

Filled up with 93 Octane today at Costco in Frisco. Tanker truck was there dropping more fuel. Lines not bad at all.
