It's not entirely the same, what you use over there I think is called CLC octane, and this takes an average of RON and another test standard called MON - this is a much better way of doing it because there's far less scope for variances. 100 RON is roughly 96 octane and 110 RON is about 105 octane.

I actually had a book right in front of me which explains all this. Interesting stuff. What I want to know is why your race fuel is measured in RON when it's less accurate?
