Default race gas station around richmond dragway

I'm going to richmond dragway either this friday or next and i need to know where to get C16 before i get there, they dont sell high octane gas at the track like they do at VMP. I know there is a place close to the track that has it, but i dont know the name of it. If anyone knows a place close by to get it, let me know the name and/or phone number.
Thanks

I dont know if they have c16 or not, but down Williamsburg road a little bit over Laburnum (away from the track) is a place called Danco. They have many types of race fuel including 110 (which i agree is all you need). Check that place out, hope that helped.

well if the above two posts have convinced you to get 110 (and I'm not agreeing or disagreeing) the amoco on magruder sells that.

i have turned my best times on 116 fuel, i have run 110 and not run quite as fast, however, I was on a t25 for both of those, i havent run the 16g above 17psi ever, and i'm planning to work it up to 20-22 psi depending on my intake temps friday, as long as the air at the TB is below 100 degrees, i'm going to try to run 22 psi, a little less if its too hot outside. I like to use the lowest octane possible, but i also like low knock counts. What do you guys think?
I try to be very conservative with my car as far as tuning and driving style go. I'm not as concerned with "how fast it is" as i am with "can i drive it home from the track tonight."
