Many do, but they have highly modified engines, to use racing fuel in a stock or standard engine is a waste of money, manufactures design most engines to run on regular gas (97 octane), compression determines what octane should be, as a rule of thumb.

∙ 14y agoyes you can put race fuel in your truck. however if the truck is computer controled you must use only unleaded racing fuel. also if you do purchase race fuel, have your computer remapped to produce the most amount of horsepower and torque as possible.

∙ 10y agoI'm not sure what "race legal" means but race cars typically use higher octane fuel such as 102 and up. Street legal cars use fuel commonly available at the pumps. Depending on the state you're in you'll find anything from 87 (low octane) to 92 and up (high octane). The difference between the octanes rating is the tendency for pre-detonation. High horsepower race engines have high compression ratios and need a fuel that wont ignite before the compression cycle is done.

Can you use race fuel in your street car to clean in out?
Yes, some gas stations even sell race fuel that's called, "Turbo Blue." You can use it whenever you want it doesn't have to be just to clean the car out, in fact I recommend stable oil to clean the car out, you simple poor one ounce of it for every gallon of gas. You can get that at any gas station or stores like, "Car Quest," and, "Advanced Auto Parts."

How are NASCAR engines different from engines in street cars?
The cubic inches of the engine in a NASCAR race car must be the same as the cubic inches of the street car engine they represent. (you can't get a V8 engine in a Camry so the previous line is false.) Other than that there is virtually nothing similar between a NASCAR engine and a street car engine. Most street cars today use advances in fuel efficiency such as fuel injection, electronic ignition and a host of sensors and vacuum control to help keep pollutants low. NASCAR race cars still use the tried and true technologies of a bygone era such as carburetors and distributors. Also, most of the engine options for the street cars these race cars are modeled after use overhead camshaft (OHC) and a front wheel drive configuration, whereas the race car engines use overhead valves (OHV) and a rear wheel drive configuration. However is is important to point out many sports cars and larger vehicles (trucks, vans, SUV's) still use OHV engines and real wheel drive. NASCAR engines even run on leaded fuel still. A NASCAR engine can cost over 1 million dollars to build.
Can you buy a NASCAR race car?
Yes. There are several racing series that use older NASCAR race cars, so they are available for sale. They are very expensive. If what you really mean is "can I buy a NASCAR and drive it on the street," the answer is no. It would cost more to make a stock car street-legal than it would to buy a brand-new street car that your favorite driver's car is patterned after and have it decorated like a stock car at a body shop. People do that.
