I noticed that the 76 Station Foxworthy & Almaden is closed for construction.
I also noticed that the 76 Station on 84 (Woodside road) is out of Race gas until later in the week.
If you are looking for 100 there is another place off the 280.
VP Gas Station
Los Altos Rancho Shopping center
660 Fremont Ave
Los Altos, CA 94024
93/100 unlead octane
Here is a good list of places to get some Race fuel.

It was $6.06 or somthing earlier this week. Depends on the station though. Kings 76 in Redwood city always has a better price. You could prob. find it for $5.89 at some places.

THE (Freeway number
The 5 north
If there were 100 pumps in my area, I would get a 100 octane tune and run it all the time. With only a buck or two difference between 91 and 100, I would gladly pay to have all that extra power.

Yea...it really does not cost much more to blend 100 & 91. Especially now.
The gas price increase seems to be effecting lower grades and not as much higher grades...especially 100.
Good news for you STI owners who run best even stock on 93.

laguna Seca went from $7.50 (which it was at for years) to $8. I'm assuming their competition 91 went up by $0.50 too, but there was a sign over it because they were out
I do half 100oct and half 91 for the Z. It's an 11.5:1 compression 327 so it needs it... If I found a station like that one mentioned in Los Altos that does 93 for an ok price, I would probably just do that. The engine builder (Merchant Speed & Machine) said it should have 92 "or better."
Last time I was 76 (a week ago it was 6.199). Also, I don't think its a wise idea to be running different types of 100 octane since 76's 100 octane is different from VP 100.
Sucks because I was going to get gas today too
