Hi  Tom
Going to the airport may not be a bad idea. A friend who  is into 
flying tells me that you can approximate Hi Octane leaded gas by  mixing 
pump gas with aviation gas.  Aviation gas is high octane, very  high lead 
content.
Small private airports will probably sell you some, but  get a 55 gallon 
drum or something. They don't like to bother with small  quantities and 
you don't want to go to the airport every  tankful.
I have not tried this myself, but I have inquired at  a small local 
airport and was told they would not object. (Most pilots can  appreciate 
our cars}

The big problem with airports is that the fuel they  sell is not subject to 
highway taxes, and is not supposed to be used in highway  vehicles.  We have a 
local airport next to a race track (Wall Stadium) so  they will sell you 
airplane gas in a jug, but they will not put it in your  vehicle.  The difference 
in price (due to the tax) is over  $2.00/gallon.  We cvan only get it when the 
track is open.  It is 105  octane, low lead.  There are places around which 
sell Cam-2 for about $3.50  - $4.00 per gallon.
