Is it hard to find places to fill up in your area?

not hard at all. i got an app for my droid that lists out any alternative fuel stations within a certain radius, and you can filter by E85, CNG, LPG, etc... there are 25 stations within 75 miles of me.

That's not too terrible. I have a buddy running E85 on a heavily modified and tuned Evo, and he has to drive 20 minutes to the closest gas station that has it.

I'm planning a trip to Columbus in my Subaru that drinks E85. While I don't have a smart phone, my girlfriend does, and I would like to know the location of E85 equipped stations. Thanks for the input.

Hope the car turns out the way you want. : ]

your best bet in the immediate area seems to be the Thornton's up by the Edinburgh outlet mall off I65 exit 76. this is according to my phone; i've yet to fill up there. what are you coming down this way for?

My girlfriend is into anime, so we're going to an anime convention there on the 27th. I'm not really obsessed about it[neither is she,really], but it seems like it might be fun.

I'm trying to work it out, but since I average 170-240 a tank, it might be a little difficult.

i actually really like the OEM 93 wheels, haha. i wouldn't mind some nicer wheels for the street and just keep the 93s for track duty on slicks, but for now, it's 93s all around!

If you and some of your car oriented friends end up going, we could all meet up and grab something to eat or something.
