I wouldn't run Torco or MMT stuff none stop, but adding a can when needed works wonders. I would make sure to run a tank or two of pure gas through every one and awhile, but a can when needed is amazing stuff.

When I was in Alaska I constantly ran Torco, as I had too. Most of the race gas there was leaded and when they had unleaded it wasn't cost effective to buy enough race gas to mix and I didn't have a place to store it. I was in the Army and in the barracks at the time. Some people may be in similar situations.

Cost and availability. I have 6 cans of torco on the shelf in the garage. Shows up same day from Amazon. Much easier than storing 50+ gallons of race gas, and it is cheaper.

Yep. And so is mine. Drove across country twice. And we all know how octane deprived the deep west is. Had to burn 89 in some areas. My car still runs...my plugs are still the factory ones...and they still look good.
