We have a chain of Convenince stores here in the midwest that has some high
octane pumps. "Casey's General Stores" The owner of Casey's drag races in a
class that requires "pump gas", so he put the Cam2 racing fuel pumps at some
of his stations, and can call it "pump gas". It is like $3.50 a gallon
compared to $1.39, but when you own the store. ?????
