Where to buy methanol?

I thought I was going to be able to pick some up at Home Depot, but they didn't have any. Where do you guys get yours?

I get mine from a local ricer speed shop right around the corner. I pay 4.00/gallon, but 5 gallons last 2-3 months.

In a pinch you can always go with Heet in the yellow bottle. It's 99% methanol and 1% "proprietary," which probably means water or some other genius ingredient.

I have been using that Heet stuff from wallmart/Autozone... I have noticed that it does not cool my IAT that much!

Is your IAT sensor in the maf or seporate... If seporate might to close and not enough time for it to evaporate and give the cooling effect on that sensor...
And the boss gets 3.48 a gallon at the race track.
