I am participating in a DE event this weekend and participants were notified that racing fuel would be available. 100 to 110 octane.
What would happen if I put it in a stock 2.0L with D-Jet? |

Typically, you don't need it unless you are running high compression. The high octane helps prevent pre-detonation aka pinging or knocking. Here's kind of an interesting write-up about Octane and Fuel.
