Or should i use some kind of rtr fuel that has like 18% oil. Traxas or blue thunder?

I know i don't need the extra oil, just something i want to do.

i am thinking 20% nitro 18% oil.

btw, what is the other 62% made of in the nitro?

Methanol

30/11 race 3000 is just fine for break in dreaux but if you think you must then use the byrons lube booster . I have 2 quarts that I haven't even used myself


And do I even need to say what the best overall package best fuel on the market is ? I think you will find a common theme in this thread

Byrons GenII race 3000 30/11 as well for me. I used to run the GenI and had no problems with that but always added a 2 ounce shot glass of pure castor oil to every gallon. Now that they have changed there synthetic to castor ratio I run it as is and really like it. You would have no problems with break in on this fuel but If you insist on more lube I would not pay for a lube booster I would add castor and rock on. Its fail proof.
