Forgive my ignorance... What's an LPG conversion? natural gas or something?

You'd want to keep that list in the car with you if you're driving any distance, only 1 in Laois, 1 in Waterford, 2 in sligo but they look like they're right beside each other, a total of 3 on the outskirts or suburbs of Cork city.

I assume you couldn't really carry a can of it in your boot in case you ran out...

You can still run most LPG converted cars on petrol by flipping a switch, this one should be no exception.

Apart from the initial installation price, the pros certainly outweigh the cons as far as I'm concerned. More info => http://www.extraordinaryroadtrip.org/re ... d-draw.asp

That gear my weigh a bit as well - so probably wouldn't be much good for dragging - unless of course you strip out the petrol tank - pump and lines for the event :-)
