this thread has a lot of good info on Octane.

octane boosters do nothing for you unless you are trying to retard detonation. They don’t give you extra go.
Racing gas will make you go fasted, but not because of the octane levels. As mentioned you will not get the most out of it if your car is not tuned for racing gas.
edit
yes octane boosters with regular (91, 93) gas are known to gum up the plugs. racing gas has a higher energy potental so is burns clean even with the higher octane level.
