Default acting wierd

Hi i went to start my car up today and when it started, it just started to rev high and the wheels spun. i try to accelerate but it just stalls. when its warmed up it can accelerate but when i take off the gas the wheels keep spinning for about 3 seconds and then stop. it was working fine last time i took it out.

I have changed fuel to 15% nitro would this affect the car.

it also idles very strange. it goes up and down.

it freaks me out PLEASE HELP ME!

i'm by no way a gas expert, but if you've moved from 5 or 10% nitro to 15% then you have to re tune the car, one other thing, you say that at idle the wheels spin, that sounds like the clutch shoes may have melted and are grabbing the clutch bell constantly?

not sure, maybe some gas experts can shed some more light.

that means you need re-tuning, it could be moving on idle due to ur idle being to high, or your clutch could be dead
