I think the Value of race fuel is a little over rated, i know if I add it to my bike its just gonna prove I can ride just as badley with 104 octane as I can with 93.

Now I do have a ? that can perhaps be answered, Does adding 2 stroke oil to my fuel add or decrease octane? Octane being a fuels ability to resist Detonation under pressure.

It would depend entirely on the oil. Generally speaking, cheap oils will tend to cause the engine to need higher octane fuel to keep from knocking. Better quality oils tend to have a minimal influence on the octane requirement of the engine.
