Need advice on using racing fuel...
Gonna head out to the track this Wednesday and was thinking of using some of this stuff as I've heard it actually helps...but I don't know how much to add, what effects does it have as far as air/fuel stuff, any disadvantages, how much of a difference does this stuff make? Thanks...

Unless your car is currently retarding timing due to detonation it will help you none at all. All gasoline has the same energy density. The only advantage to higher octane is the ability to run higher compression/boost.
