He meant to type: How many people use CAM 2 race gas, which I believe is 110 octane? Are there any benefits or drawbacks. By the way, my car has no catalytic convertors.
Now we all know what he's asking.
If your engine isn't high compression or big boost I would run regular 93 and get a good tune. It seems like a waste of money otherwise.

You need to worry about the sensors and the cats. The lead bungs up the sensor and skews the readings. If you run leaded fuel on a cam only engine or stock ( I have no idea why you would, unless you are running Nitrous or Boost) your spending money on fuel you don't need. 93 octane fuel is more than enough for what your are doing, and it will save you money.

Cam 2 is race gas that alot of Speedway gas stations carry. It is a leaded fuel, that will clog your cats if you have them, and even if you dont, will still kill your o2 sensors. I ran like one tank once and killed my o2s. You can however buy unleaded race gas, like Torco 109, and it will be safe.

Cam 2 is and always has been a Sunoco product. There's more than just the 110 octane. They have a better fuel called 260 GT. It's 100 octane, unleaded, and completely street legal. It will not harm either cats or oxygen sensors. It's unnecessary for anything but a high compression or boosted engine.
