VP Racing M1 Meth Cost
Hi guys,
A local shop will sell me the VP Racing M1 for $7.50 / gallon. I've searched some other posts and people seem to be getting it for much cheaper. But I also looked at some online websites that sell it, and the cost of shipping alone was more than the price of the product. (I'm assuming b/c of weight) So, are they screwing me? Or possibly just passing the shipping charges onto me (which is understandable). |

7.50/gallon is on the high side. I get meth locally from ERC racing fuels for $3/gallon. But most really only end up using 1 gallon per week so spending an extra $12/month to get 100+octane and cooling effects isn't bad

FWIW, you can buy 55gallon drums for ~$160... What kills you is shipping; so like I said, team up with a local shop and get an order of 10 or more barrels and it'll be cost effective
