RAY: I was on a holiday recently and my car was in need of petrol.
I was on a secondary road, and I turned into a self-service gas station. I pulled up to one of the minipumps, and absentmindedly reached for the nozzle.
I was just about to fill up my tank, when I happened to notice that the gasoline was a little expensive.
In fact, it was $4.59 a gallon. I said, "Whoa. What kind of vehicle uses this stuff?"
I looked around. There was a vehicle on the lift and I knew immediately why this gasoline was $4.59 a gallon. I went to one of the other pumps and filled up with the cheaper stuff.
Here's the question: What did I see?

Answer:
RAY: What I saw on the lift was a car that had numbers on it. Its doors were welded shut, and it had no glass. It was in fact a racecar. And this guy must have been the local gas station where all the racecar drivers -- there must have been a track nearby -- came to get their gas. This gas was 110 octane. Pretty good, huh? Do we have a winner?
TOM: The winner is Sean Duffy from Flagstaff, Arizona. Congratulations!
