try contacting your local RC model shop, ask if they either stock or know of local racers etc with A747


we use A747 in the fuel for the large RC cars, I wouldnt use anything else in them engines

failing that give me a location out there and will ask around for you, know other racers all over the world :)

I used to go to speedways just for that smell. "mmm the sweet smell of cancer"

Havent heard about any races recently though. Any of you lads have anything to do with speedway?
