MR12 at Mojave
« on: March 18, 2014, 09:57:56 PM »
Is there a place to get a pail of MR12 in Mojave or someplace close to there?
Thank you

Did you try any of the performance shops in Bakersfield? VP's website sucks.
If you can't find any, shop near me has it.

I sent an email to VP a couple days back and haven't heard back from them.

MJ, last year I emailed BJ, she put me in touch with the VP dude. I called him so he would bring a couple can's of MR12. Make sure you call the VP dude cuz he was thinking about providing gas for the cars, not the bikes.

Hey MJ, wondering if you were able to get in touch with the VP folks and if they will be bringing a couple jugs-o-MR12 to Mojave?
I emailed bj but didn't get a response...
I may need to purchase a can real quick, I only got about 3/4 of a can after dynoing, and I know I will easily burn through that on Saturday.

Thanks,

Thanks for the replies. Due to "unforeseen circumstances" at 3 pm yesterday :cussing: I won't be bringing the van of death but a rental truck with a mooched trailer. Thank you Jimbo!!! So I'll be able to bring my own fuel. Really looking forward to this event.
