Default Pump Gas or RACE Gas???

So looking for anyone who has already tested and checked this out.

I am running 100 dry shot on me car. I run TR6 for the plug. Has tune, gears, should I be only running race gas when hitting..

Or would I be OK hitting on pump gas????

I have heard that I would be fine hitting the 100 shot on pump gas..Not sure if someone might of had some experience they might want to share about
what difference might of been seen..

Thanks all...

You list a tune in your mods, how far did they advance the timing.

You will need to retard the timing if it has been changed from the OEM settings...this to me is more important than running race fuel. If the timing is correct then you should be able to spray on good pump gas.

My timing is RETARDED... LOL.....

So basically with the tune done, I should not need to worry about putting the race gas in.
Putting the race gas in is for peeps who have not done tuning and are being safe??? correct???

And as for the good gas.. I have searched high and low and found like 1 place with good gas that you dont get detonation in......
Which is good that I found them, but sucks that so far its only been 1 station.

Goes to show how bad we are getting ripped off on gas!!!!!!!!!!!!

As to how far its advanced, I am not sure.. I know it shows good when hitting a 150 shot dry...

I was just unsure of the need for the race gas... like the main reason peeps use the race gas.. I would prefer to not use it, for the fact it costs enough to go racing as it is.

On a 100 shot good 93 octain is not a problem. As long as the timming is right.
