Superunleaded/Optimax near Devizes?
#1
A guy at work had the following question - wonder if any of you well travelled people had any ideas?

Does anyone know how you can go about finding where superunleaded
petrol is available in advance of visiting somewhere.
The reason I ask is that I have a trackday in the Devizes area in the near future and will require a top up of the expensive stuff to get through the day starting from my local Shell pump in Southampton.
Shell has an online optimax finder, but that seems to suggest I can't get any fuel this side of Chippenham, which seems a long way.
Does anyone know what I could do to find out in advance where I can
buy SUL, eg are there any websites that have a database of SUL petrol stations?
Failing that, does anyone know of and SUL petrol stations near
(preferably just the other side of) Devizes?

Unfortunately the Wilts area around Devizes is very poorly supplied by Shell Optimax. you can get SuperUL from most of the garages around but no Opitax.
Depending on which way you are coming to Devizes there is a Shell garage on the A36 at Amesbury on the roundabout, think it is called the Princess something service area.
Which trak event is it and where is it held. Is it at Keevil? If so let me know as I live just around the corner from Keevil and might pop in for a look.

The AA one is rubbish. It says garages sell super unleaded and they don't. I put this to the test to a few in my area and it came up with three, 2 Total (who don't do super unleaded and a Save which clearly does not! I think if you locate all the BP and Esso ones on the Mapzit there is bound to be one that had super
