Just interested in what your experiences are in detail. We have tested race fuel on Kenny's car when already running Meth, and we found negligable benefit with Meth. Obviously the benefit would be more without meth, but I am thinking that race gas with a couple psi more boost might get you 20-30kW over an optimised 98 RON setup, and that would be worth maybe 2-3MPH. Without extra boost, maybe 1-2MPH.
