For older car engines can you upgrade from regular gas to medium or super?

Hello, my 1999 Camaro calls for regular gas. I heard that if you have an older car/engine you should use a higher octane gas.

My car is almost 11 years old and has 104,000 miles. I drive it pretty hard. Would a higher grade of gas be alright?
 
yes it would be alright but it wouldnt be necessary, higher octane gases are really for engines with a 10:1 compression ratio (high performance)
