Up here in CNY there are a few stations that sell alcohol free high 
test. I have been using it for about 3 years in my Triumphs. It is about 
20 to 30 cents a gallon more than the regular 87. It is unleaded.

Also most of the fill up stations at the various lakes sell alcohol free 
gas. This started long before it was available for our cars. Not sure if 
it is legal in street cars, but it is sure expensive!

I am guessing the local drag racers use the av gas unless they are 
running pure alcohol.
