Trying to find race gas

Just from what I know there is 100 unleaded on Rt 71 in Oswego, but I can't remember the name of the station it's at.
Other than that, I know Winner's Circle in Joliet sells the leaded stuff.
I get 110 at the pump where I am for about $3.30 a gallon. At least that's what it was last year, hopefully it hasn't gone up much.

RUBRMAN,
Register over at www.chitownracing.com. There is a post up there with pretty much every gas station in the area that sells race gas.
I get mine from the Speedway on 183rd and Harlem in Tinley Park. 110 CAM2 for $3.39/gal.

race gas near Harlem and Grand.
there is a gas staion about 3 blocks west of Harlem on Grand ave. that sells race gas, but I think its unleaded 101 octane. There is also a station on irving park road just west of york road in bensenville, Il that as far as I know still sells that 101 unleaded fuel. Pretty soon the race gas will cost the same as 93 octane!!!

Car shows in N/W Chicago Area
Does anyone have a list of places for car shows located in the Schaumburg/Hoffman Estates/Roselle/Hanover Park area? Fratos Restaurant at Weathersfield and Roselle Roads sponsored cruise nights last year on Thursdays, but it doesn't seem to be happening this year. I don't know of anywhere else. Thanks.

'98 Regal GS mods
I finally had the S/C pulley changed (from 3.8" to 3.5") last week. The max boost increased by 3 psi (7 to 10). My mechanic said 3 psi translates to about 24 hp (1 psi of boost = ~8 hp). He also installed an IAT module that tricks the PCM into thinking incoming air is colder than it is. He said it should give me ~7-8 more hp, which is what SLP claims. With my new K&N air filter, 3.5" pulley, and IAT module he thinks it should dyno at ~275-280 hp, and ~315-320 ft-lbs of torque. He also said to make sure to only use premium gas. I CAN feel a big difference at launch.
