93 octane plus Torko vs 100 octane race gas at the track

Like the title says gents and ladies. Which would be better for track conditions. I ask because I assume Torko is also for conditioning fuel.

You will not see any performance gain from higher octane fuel unless you are experiencing detonation (spark knock).

You need more compression / timming to gain power with race fuel.

I agree with all the above....however, it makes the exhaust smell great, regardless whether you are tuned for it or not

Race fuel will make more power. It's more than just a higher octane and contains additives that increase the energy content over typical pump gas.
