I think they are paying significantly more than that in England.

I just got my MG off the dyno - it has a belly full of AVGAS and as that is
what it is tuned for, that is what it will use for now.

$3.65 per litre - convert THAT to dollars per gallon and feel your wallet
hurt.

I think America has some of the cheapest petrol prices so they might be in for
some pain pretty soon.
