Oh I miss 93 octane (used to live in Florida) but thanks for the input and a few years back I had a stock Hellcat and was running the 1/2 mile and in the pits someone suggested adding like 4 gallons of 100 octane as I might be pulling timing toward the top end. I put Torco 100 octane fuel in (no booster...actual fuel...as they were on site) and went out and ran with my 280lb best friend in the car and ran the same speed as by myself. So I dropped him off and went out and ran my best run of the day 3 mph faster then all day. So I am hoping it will help the ZLE run...maybe not 3 mph but I will take any help I can to get the fastest speed.
