M1 methanol dealer near Fort Rucker, AL?

I will be doing some training at Ft. Rucker, Alabama for a few months and I can't seem to locate a VP fuel distributer. I run 100% M1 methanol daily. If I cant get this what is a great alternative?

Is this on your 135? If so can you PM me what all you have done to run Meth? I'd been running Half E85 half 91 recently but have been somewhat looking into Methanol, as i've found it here locally from a fuel distributor for fairly cheap. Thanks!
For finding an alternative, you might check into E85, may be able to run it without any mods if you already run meth? Not 100% sure on that though. Good luck!

I run the Coolingmist setup. 2.3 gal tank, CMGS (system X) with FSB, and solenoid all tied into my JB4. Works great. I did away with the check-valve and flow sensor. The check-valve caused nothing but problems and the flow sensor only allows you to run 70% methanol I believe. Pretty safe in my opinion. If the CMGS detects a problem it modifies the voltage output going to the JB4 which then lowers my boost to an acceptable level.
