I stopped to fill up at the BP station in downtown Saratoga before heading up hwy 9 to Skyline over the weekend and noticed a pump of 'racing gas'...don't remember what octane rating it was (I suspect it is high 90's). I know some folks run flashed ECU programs that are tuned specifically for 100+ octane...but anyone run high octane fuel like this on occasion? btw, it was like $8 / gallon.
