Torco Unleaded Accelerator, Race Fuel Concentrate.
The Unleaded concentrate when blended with a 91-octane super unleaded makes up to a 104-octane race fuel for many of today's streetcars, motorcycles, watercraft, ATV's, and many other motor sport applications!
Priced at $14.99ea or $83.94 a case
After hearing your concerns, I’ve contacted Torco Racing Fuels. They informed me that the testing process they used to make their 104-octane claim was done about ten years ago and when the fuel manufactures had different manufacturing process then they do today.
Torco states that the engine & knock protection they products will provides is still there. They will be retesting their product claims and publishing the results at a near date. If you have any additional questions and would like to speak with the Torco Representative that I spoke with please PM me and I will provide you his name and number as he will glady answer and questions you may have.
Thank you

My intentions with what i'm about to post are NOT to hurt Apex's business in any way but instead are to prevent people from damaging their motors.
My personal experience with the UNLEADED version of Torco is that is does NOT work as advertised. The LEADED version on the other hand seems to work AWESOME and probably does increase the octane as much as the bottle states.
The following is a link showing just how poorly the UNLEADED version of Torco works:

If you don't have cats to worry about then just run the LEADED... it really does work. ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

True but not true. Leaded fuel will decrease the life of your o2 sensors but not nearly as fast as the cats. You should be able to get ~12k miles out of o2 sensors runing leaded fuel on a consistent basis. If you just run it at the races then it will have virtually zero effect on them.
