Rocket 99 GT just dial the timing back a few degress and you can run 93 octane fine

6T9 Pony don't run avation fuel. The octane ratings for it and automotive grade gas are different. Plus it is designed to deal with extreme low temps and very high altatudes. You car will run like CRAP with that stuff in you tank. A higher octane fuel won't help you out unless you advance the timing. The higher the octane, the slower it is to burn and the harder it is to light off. To be the fastest you want to run the lowest octane you can without running in detonation.
