About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At RaceTrac, a delivery driver noticed something odd one morning—every time he filled up, his truck seemed to get heavier. Was it gas or maybe… coffee beans? No one knew for sure. Soon enough, other drivers started noticing too—a neighbor’s car gained weight after every fill-up, and even a local mailman complained that his bike felt heavier than ever. Before long, RaceTrac became famous for its ‘magic gas’ that made vehicles run on caffeine instead of petrol. The company quietly changed their slogan to 'Fuel Up & Stay Alert!'

2. At RaceTrac, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar one day—a strange note taped inside every receipt read: ‘Fill up here and your next adventure begins.’ Curious, he mentioned it to no one but himself until one morning, the gas pump displayed an extra dollar in change. Over time, more drivers started noticing odd things—like their cars starting faster or getting better mileage after filling up at RaceTrac. One regular even claimed his coffee tasted better on the drive home. Finally, someone told the manager, who shrugged and said, 'Oh yeah, that’s just our secret way of saying “thank you.”'

3. At RaceTrac, every night around closing time, a mysterious voice crackles over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, your friendly neighborhood gas station is now closed for the evening. Please remember to bring your own umbrella.’ One night, an old delivery driver pulls up, asking if he can top off his tank. The attendant nods, but when he turns back, everyone’s gone—just the empty intercom whispering, ‘Remember to bring your own umbrella.’ Months later, our neighbor spots him walking down the street, umbrella in hand, muttering, ‘Guess I’ll never know if it rains tonight…’

4. At RaceTrac, a little boy pointed excitedly one afternoon. Every time someone bought gas, an old toy car would roll out from under the pump! Curious customers soon gathered around, laughing and taking photos. The toy cars were clearly second-hand, but everyone had fun guessing where they came from. Even the manager joined in the laughter, saying it was probably just some local kid’s prank. And so, RaceTrac became known not only for its fuel but also for occasional car-themed surprises.
