I agree. The white is great. However very hard to find except at a 7/11 type store in the small bottles. I have never seen it in the big jugs or powder in the local supermarket.

Both Gatorade and Powerade and mostly sugar water. Since you obviously have Internet access I would get online and try some other drinks such as Cytomax or Hammer Gel products which have a high carb count but low sugar. You get the good carbs and not much of the sugar spikes associated with pure sugar drinks. Just my opinion. You may not have time to do that for this event which in that case either PA or GA will work fine. When I use either of those I dilute in 50/50 water to cut the sweet taste down a bit.
