Anyone tried the Shell URT Advanced Race Fuel?

A local shop I also work closely with (Stage6 Motorsports) became a dealer for Shell Race Fuel last week. We tested it out on some of their turbo'd SRT 8 Jeeps, and the fuel performed very, very well! One jeep had a single Preceision 88mm and made 1147hp, one had a single Precision 76mm and made over 1000hp, the other has twin Precision 6766s and made over 1000hp on low boost... IMHO it out performed VP C-16 with its detonation resistance, and the best part is that it is non-oxygenated (great for people with ID2000s/FIC2150s) and unleaded (great for O2 sensors), so no rescaling of injectors is needed. BTW, these jeeps had ID2000s, and performed great with this fuel!

Shell Racing Fuel URT Advanced
Application - Shell Racing Fuel URT Advanced is a high-octane unleaded racing fuel specially formulated by Shell for off-road use. Shell URT Advanced is the highest octane (research + motor octane/2) unleaded racing fuel available on the market today.
Shell URT Advanced Racing Fuel is specially formulated by Shell and is designed to perform in applications normally requiring the use of lead. It contains a race-proven lead replacement additive that protects against exhaust valve seat recession in racing engines. This fuel contains no oxygen and is formulated using technology that provides detonation resistance previously only possible using lead. This unique technology is developed for engines requiring high octane racing fuel.

That doesn't sound bad. What's its octane rating? (110 (R=M)/2?) What's its effect on catalytic converter?
