Directions to gas stations
:

There is no gas available at Race City or in the immediate vicinity.

The highest octane fuel available is Mohawk's Premium Plus 94 Octane, and it is sold at Southhill Mohawk – directly across from the Glenmore Inn on the southwest corner of Sheppard Road and Glenmore Trail (also see »directions to Glenmore Inn from Race City above).

However, Porsche advises NOT to use Mohawk ethanol blended fuels in newer Porsches.  So, if Mohawk fuels are not to your car's liking, there is an Esso located between Barlow Trail and Sheppard Road on Glenmore Trail (just east of the hotel).

You can also find a Petro Canada by heading West on Glenmore Trail to 19 St. SE and turning South (left). It's about 2 blocks down in the shopping centre.

With the proliferation of new developments to the south, there are also gas stations in the McKenzie Lake and Douglasdale subdivisions.
