It looks like you transfer the gas from the steel container to the plastic one before filling. I use a hand pump I purchased from VP Racing that pumps right from the 5 gallon can.
i do have both but i prefer using this filling it is not a problem at all
i dont fill that can when i go home i always find it filled lol

Stick with the VP109 for the price we pay almost $15.00 a gal for the 109 & about $12.00 a gal for 100 in CA ,its a couple more bucks for the good stuff & you can really feel it & from what i heard it's actually a couple octanes lower than the actual octane # somehow so the 100 is actually more like 98 oct.Thats why i switched my tune to a E85 tune that stuff feels the same as vp109 for only $2.99 a gallon.

$90/gal--YIKES! That's like $12,000 worth of gas you got there.....This is where gas averages 80 cents/gal. You can't get decent high octane fuel in Kuwait?

Yes the USA East coasters are very spoiled with low cost fueling options..
Europe pays $9 a gallon in some areas and more.
