What a shame. I've been running Bones for 10+ years.

Yes it sucks. I’m also wondering how this will affect the nitro fuel market. I can definitely see the end of fuel in quart containers as that would be costly to put a flame retardant/ mitigation device in every container.

I agree but why stab at bones? the dude provided great fuel for a great price. So what if some cry baby cant handle a lil burning eyes simple solutions. Don't run nitro, don't pit nitro, point the exhaust away from you so you aren't blowing it in your face, Stand back a little. Instead, just beat on Bones cuz it burns his eyes. I ran bones the whole time I ran nitro never noticed it "burning my eyes" more than any other fuel.

Gonna miss bones no other manufacturer would sell you fuel as cheap shipped to your door.

not to poke fun here, but there is no such thing as a child safe cap that seniors can use. kids are the only ones who can open those damn things and seniors can't unscrew the lid on peanut butter.
