91 gas for track

Im about to start tracking my F80.

Im in Socal, my F80 is bone stock.
Will it be ok to track the car hard with 91 gas?

Can I mix in some octane boosters such as torco/boostane?

Not looking for more power. Just to keep things running good and safe.

Thanks

I believe octane booster will destroy your O2 sensors

You'll be fine. The car will compensate if needed

You can run all day at the track with decent pump gas (91 or 93). The BMW Driving School does it all day, every day. I also track my car regularly on pump gas. (I'm still running the factory tune...)
