I get mine from a very small local gas/oils distributor. We have a bunch of racing guys in town and he keeps a couple of barrels of each of what we use. :D :D :D

It's VP N02. A nitrous fuel.
It's cheaper than the Q16 I use to run and it's also A LOT CHEAPER than C23 (about $18.00 per gal.) that most nitrous guys use.

From VP web site.
NO2™
Recommended for fogger or three-stage nitrous oxide applications with CRs up to 18:1. Higher octane and lower specific gravity than most nitrous fuels. May require enriching fuel mixture more than would be required for C16.
I was paying 6.98 a gallon for sunoco 110 last yr this yr 8.98 mine went up a lil this yr

9.75 for 100 & 110 here in Oregon. We can't pump our own gas either... so we pay gas attendant wages & some other tax too.
