i plan on racing a friend and heard that filling up with 91 octane rather than 87 or 89 and only adding a gallon or two from empty will make you the fastest
true or not? |

yes dude honestly he is just kidding. if you run anymore than 87 its just a waste of money cause its not gonna benifit you at all cause your car isnt tuned for it and 91 could even make your car run worse
