But, adding timing to the point of KR does not mean you are making better power...

The last few cars i have done with race fuel where using 116 octane and where i had 17 deg on pump gas, i went to 24 deg on thw 116 octane so thats a total of 7 degrees, given 110 octane i would go 3-4 deg over pump gas spark.
