What about Torco, im hearing so many good things about them. I was having my car tuned on Torco 118, now im worried.
Craig how do you like the Trick 101? Ive used it daily for my previous setup.

hasn't this always been the case? never run more octane than what you need? higher octane = slower burning - that's why it's less likely to detonate.
it is interesting to hear about the cooling additives in the C12...

Craig,
Can you please ask Jay or your distributor if C25 would work for our applications? It has higher octane and faster burn rates than C12 does:
Specification Sheet: C25
Specific Gravity: .692 @ 60°F
Leaded: Yes
Color: Yellow
Motor Octane: 113.0
RVP: 9.66
Oxidation Stability (min.) 1440+
Distillation:
10% evap @ 120.8°F
50% evap @ 162.5°F
90% evap @ 207.2°F
E.P. @ 231.6°F
Availability: Sealed Drums

Also, IRT Sunoco 112...it ain't all that. Burn rates are much slower than C12:
Sunoco Supreme Leaded
Antiknock Index (R+M)/2 112
10% Evaporation - 170
50% Evaporation - 219
90% Evaporation - 232
