    unless it's actually from a track that people buy it from, it usually sits in the tank for a LONG TIME. :(

    also you won't really see any benefits from it unless you are setup to run it (more boost, timing, etc)

    Throw some toluene in your tank. I threw 2 gals in with 14 gals of my normal Citgo premium and got 5mpg better fuel economy than the last tank of straight premium. I'm baffled, the car loved the added octane, made more power, and got better fuel economy at the same time.

    jk, this worked for me but is no way economically viable or even statistically sound, just a fluke occurrence.
