I always thought that "fast track" was when you go on a date, and things escalate quickly. But what do I know.
This is an awesome gas station in one of the lowest income neighbourhoods in the WNY region. Poor neighbourhoods generally have to pay more for gas (I have no idea why), but that is no longer the case around Bailey and the 33, because Fast Trac has - at the very least - mid-range prices, and often is cheaper than most competitors.
Also, gas stations in poor areas are sometimes run down and overcrowded and claustrophobic. This one is the opposite. It looks brand new, it has more pumps than Arnold Schwarzenegger in 1977, and is spacious and almost - gasp - luxurious.
I'm not sure what the whole "loyalty card" thing is about, but they take it to the extent that they advertise their loyalty gas price as prominently as the regular price, which I think is misleading. Hence the 4 stars instead of 5.
It's sometimes hard to find a gas station on the East Side, and this place really ups the standards and raises the bar. People in poor neighbourhoods are just as deserving of clean, safe, well-lit, spacious gas stations as anyone else. Thanks Fast-Trac.
Now just learn how to spell "track" and we'll be all good. read more
