Where's that place near SFO where you can get 100 octane?

Where's that place near SFO where you can get 100 octane? Someone told me about this a few weeks ago. I cannot recall who told me or where the place was. But I was told there was some mom-n-pop gas station (76?) with 100 or so at the pump.

Anyone know the name of the station or where it's located?

thanx,
jason

going towards SJ on 680 from sacramento

there is a golfcourse out in the mountains, maybe 15 minutes from the Berryessa exit
forgot the name of the exit, but it starts with an "A".
DOnt know if that helps, but if you ask Freddie and other local folk, they can point you in the right direction

There used to be a Olympic station of the Millbrae exit in 101 that sold 100 octane. I think they are gone now though

Why do I get the feeling MachIII's gas will be outrageously expensive ... and I get some sort of doubt creaping up in me about the octane rating they'd claim.

The more I deal with shops where I'm not a good, good friend of an owner or a very important employee, the more I feel like the attitude is "screw you, gimme you're money".

I just found out today of a 76 Station in San Mateo near 92 off the El Camino behide Safeway. I'll drive by tonight and check it out. Otherwise you'll have to go to the 76 in San Jose on the Almaden Expy. I just bought some last night @ $4.29 Gal.

I finally got some 104 Unleaded Race Gas from Bob Reed's Olympic which is just behind Safeway in San Mateo. It goes for $5.80/gal and you must bring a container to fill up.
