Video performs much better directly from Youtube.
I think I might have been running a little rich....

+ YouTube Video

I'm getting out of rc racing so I will be selling all my stuff including my CRE bonito and my CRE P5. The bonito has Neals break-in and 3 heat races on it. The P5 has never been on the track but has around 3/4 of a gallon on it from break-in. Both were always pre heat to around 200 before starting. Great engines just don't have the time to race anymore. I hate to see these 2 engines go to someone that doesn't appreciate and understand how much power they have. That's the reason I wanted to post this here. I hope you don't mind neal and John. If interested please pm me for prices and details.

that is an awesome video.....

I Am going to say the Bonito is still the king of the hill.... in overall package the Bonito is hard to beat,,,tho the Proto 7 gies it a run for its money...they both have awesome low end, but the Bonito is more aggressive in the powerband, and they both have killer top ends...down the straight they go side by side...

Thanks man! Now, if I could learn to drive like Nick, Peter, or Evan, I could REALLY get some good shots!

Speaking of Moxely, are you coming down with him to foley Mn in a month?

I've been told I am. Probably bring both my trucks and the nitro buggy.

Yes Sir. Maybe even a few more too.

What fuels do you recommend?

Perfect!


And bootleg,

Byron's or Werks.

I have ran them all (well most), and I have found Werks to provide the best protection and performance package. Some may give slightly better performance but not provide a lot of protection (i.e. OD Speed blend, Nitrotane) and some lubricate very well but are not great race fuels.

I am on my second CASE of Werks fuel and I don't plan on changing to anything else anytime soon.

I have been running werks fuel for several years, love it no problem

I run what Neil, John, and Nick run. Clocked Werks 30% Canadian Team Blend. (I think that means it has french writing on the label. )

Actually, I think everyone at the track runs the same....except Evan.... He runs Nitrotane, but I think he buys new engines every year anyway....

Thank you, I'll pick up a gallon today. I would like some more protection than vp and Byron seems like a good choice. Werks seems expensive to get for me, but I could be wrong.

I just did the math on the Werks fuel that John sells on the website, and compared it to Amain's price on Byron's 30%....

If I'm reading CRE's site correctly, John includes the hazmat charges and shipping in his price, but adds 3% paypal fees.

Amain will charge hazmat and shipping on top of their price. Most places I can find will charge $15-25 in hazmat fees and you're probably looking at at least $10 shipping (I can't tell, since they won't ship it to a Canadian address)

After shipping/hazmat/etc
CRE's Werks Fuel is about $30.90 USD /Gallon
Amain's Byron's is about $35 USD /gallon

Now, these are just estimates, and I cannot find any local pricing in Texas for Byrons...just Amain....
