I was rear-ended in my 90Q20v in May (I would have cried if it were my
S6) and shoved into a big truck in front me.  I spent the summer
rebuilding it.  The driver that hit me was (amazingly) insured.

Calvin Craig told me about a place with 104 octane unleaded racing fuel:

"It's at Duggans Petroleum at about Union and Santa Fe...kind of on the
frontage road just west of Santa Fe a little south of Hampden.  Kind of
in
the same general area as Colorado Auto Parts and Adam's Imports
Junkyards."

I haven't gone there yet...
