I don't know what octane it is but my local BP at Carramar sells I think 20 litre drums of some type of BP higher octane petrol and from memory I asked once and they are approx $50 or something I will have to find out exactly.....

Not sure about buying bp100 in sydney but up here in newcastle there is a BP distribution center and you can buy it from them ... You do know that BP100 is leaded dont you.. In sydney all i know of is ET race fuels
ET race fuels website (http://www.etracingfuels.com/)

I have spoken to them in the very recent past about pricing and their 102octane is as follows :-20lt = $100.00
:-200lt = $880.00
and 110 octane :-20lt = $110.00
:-200lt = $920.00

After checking the BP website i still stand by my statement that it is a leaded fuel click for MSDS for BP100 (http://tds-au.bp.com/bpglis/oztds3.nsf/d9626f8424d26a26ca256a790031248a/1eb8127b96265ee6ca256b67000be058?OpenDocument)

i dont know anything about this, except for the fact that there were ad campaigns for BP100 UNLEADED a few years ago. whether its technically leaded or not i wouldnt know, but i assume it would be fine for unleaded vehicles, BP wouldnt be stupid enough to ad leaded for unleaded cars.

If your talking BP 100 as in Avgas, forget it, Unless you have a Leaded Race Fuel log book, then you won't get it anywhere. airports stopped selling it years ago to non airplane use. Get caught with it on the street and i think you could be looking at a grand or 2 fine per Cylinder. Talk to Envrinoment Aust, they will tell you all about it!!!.

You can get it at BP north manly but you need a cams licence to get it.

You might like to know that because BP100 is a leaded fuel, it's actually illegal to use it in a street car. The distributor will need to see proff that it's going to be used on the race track, eg CAMS licence. I work at a BP depot, and we now sell stuff all of this stuff because of this

The BP at Carramar (Western Sydney) has BP100 in drums for $65 they always seem to have 4 or 5 sitting on the shop floor.....

It is on the Horsley drive which runs off the Hume Hwy. Horsley Drive is the first on the right after the Maccano lights (Woodville Rd) going towards Liverpool follow it down over the train bridge and it will be on your right about another 500 metres.

My point is because you need proof of non-road usage, people have found ather alternatives, and at $65 for a 20L drum, it's still a hell of alot cheaper to buy Ultimate and some octane boost. BP100 octane ratining is actually around 102-104 mark, and if your racing an older car, i see a lot of benefit in it, because it is a true leaded fuel(never have been a huge fan of the addatives). These days most of sales go to Dirt Bike racers
