Those aren't top tier fuels. None of them are if they come from a gas pump at a public fuel station. They all come from the same distribution networks (refineries, pipelines, trucks), and only contain different additives/detergents.

VP-Racing, Sunoco Racing Fuels, ERC, Philips-B are a few that come to mind. You'll find them at a local dragstrip.

Alternatively you can blend your own fuel (I do this for my crotch rocket when I take it to the drag strip):

1/2 Gal Xylene
1/2 Gal Toluene
1Tbsp ATF (Auto Trans Fluid)

Either route is outrageously expensive.. but worth it. Even 1 gallon of my X/Y mix (as I call it) in a half tank or less will boost your net octane pretty considerably. Also, don't even get a single DROP of this stuff on your paint.
