If so, where do you get it and what kind are you running? From my understanding: 100oct will protect my motor from knock and ECU wont pull timing as it gets hotter. Granted i wont make any additional power with 100oct but i will maintain power levels as it temps rise on the track.

You want to make sure you're tuned properly for the octane you're running. Running too high of octane can be dangerous too because higher octane actually burns slower. It can lead to the fuel burning on the way out of the engine instead of completely in the combustion chamber.
If you're heat soaking to the point of timing being pulled back, adding octane is just a band aid as well. You'll want to keep heat in check first.
