Title: Methanol at BUB
Post by: peterdallan on June 04, 2012, 06:06:43 PM

Looking for advice regarding the supply of Methanol at BUB.

I'll be flying in from the UK a few days ahead of BUB, and wondered if Methanol was available at the event itself or if it's needs to be purchased ahead of the event and brought with us.

If it needs to be brought with us, can anyone suggest a good (local) supplier?

Thanks

Peter

A couple of years back at Bub's, I was buying gas and the competitor ahead of me was buying methanol and nitromethane from the gas trailer.

Rick always has Methanol, last year a couple of guys gave Max their leftovers including the cans....

You just need to ask Rick to bring it to the event ahead of time.

ERC confirmed that they will have both methanol and nitromethane at BUB this year. One headache out of the way!
