Any chance we can push this back a week, or perhaps squeeze in a few extra days into the week leading up to WG?

I am definitely not ready yet.

Sounds like they taking it very seriously and making a huge investment. Very high hopes for the result: smooth, grippy and long-lasting.

I seem to recall someone mentioning that they do not have fuel available onsite is that accurate?

Watkins Glen has high octane race fuel on site (not sure about 93 octane pump gas); there was one year when they ran out, but I would hope that was an isolated instance. Payment is via person taking your credit card vice at-the-pump, so the pumps are typically open for a few hours each day and the times are posted.

It's just a ten minute run down the hill into town to get your 93. Much easier than dealing with gas cans.

^ I dove down the hill to gas up in my car last year Expired tags and no inspection sticker. Of course a county sheriff parked right next to me at the pumps. Didn't say anything thankfully.
