Should this mixture be good enough???
(91 octane*6 gallons +100 octanes*6 gallons)/12 gallons = 95.5 octane.

How's your car running, cause with octane rating of 95.5 you should be able to run a car with 12:1 compression ratio.

Probably was a waste of money unless you plan on going to a drag race this weekend.

I have a PDF file containing the mixing chart for 76 100 octane gas. If someone has a place to host it I could post it here.
