the servo in rakia has av gas but its not a shell but will be on your way.

my old man can get shell 100 plus for you which is what they sold at ruapuna as avgas, but only if you have a race license

He needs it for dyno tuning. The local dunedin tuners are all amateurs so he has to go to chch to get it done properly. Unfortunatly his car has so much compression it won't run safely on pump gas! I reckon he should just take some up with him?

if i was to carry my own fuel, enough to get there and back and tuning i would need to have a full tank when i leave and to cary 100l with me, maybe a little dangerous.

I have found i can get fuel from a small airport at rangiora, I just need to arrange access.
