why not just run your tank dry on the way to the track and fill it up with your "race fuel" when you get there?
This is what all/most boosted track miatas do, in fact this is what most track cars do.

That took exactly 7 seconds. Either you're too lazy to type "spec miata" into a search window, or you don't know what the **** autocrossing is.

Autocross=cones
Road course wheel to wheel racing is what spec miata is.
ON TOPIC:
I don't know why you're worrying about a setup that will involve perfecting TWO tunes when you couldn't even get one tune right.
Also, how are you going to know when to switch back and forth between the two if you can't tell when the fuel line is full/empty of race gas during switches.
I see more bent rods in your future young Skywalker.

Damn, fellas! Ease up on the boy.
You will know when the race gas reaches the injectors by the smell of the exhaust gasses, I suppose.
Good for you for taking the initiative and experimenting with something new.
I would personally use the water/meth mix so that the benefits of the extra power/safety would always be available. Meth is safe unless you freebase it.
