What's the Best Fuel is there a difference between Brands ?

Well what does everyone run Fuel wise ??

Make ???

% ???
Mr.B

I've been running Tornado 16% with no problems.
But after talking to a couple of people i'm thinking of changing to Byron 16%,it has a different percentage/make up of lubrication and so offers a bit more performance whilst running slightly cooler.

I phoned a local Hobby Shop who said they only stock fuel from 20% UP and recommended Big Bang 20% ???????????
Mr.B

2o% in a .12 engine will definately end up in a 'big-bang'. q32


Trust me on this one 16% and no higher. q42

On Checking on the Engine Specs they all seem to say 20% fuel ????????

I do trust you Paul

off out to get some 16% Byron from another local hobby store .................
Mr.B

Dont worry,16% will give you all the performance you'll ever need.

Oh and here's another reason why we run 16%:

Taken from BRCA website 200mm i.c rules.
9.6 Fuel
9.6.1 Fuel may only contain Methanol, Oil/lubricant, and nitro methane with a maximum 16% nitro-methane content.  Verifying this fuel will be done using a floater called Nitromax 16, which is commercially available.
9.6.2 Any driver using fuel found to be illegal will be disqualified from the race in question.  If a driver is found to be using illegal fuel on a second time at the same meeting he or she will be disqualified from the meeting.
