Fuel runs good as is. Recommend leaving is stock, unless you doing a break in.

Brad is 100% correct. The fuel was designed to meet IFMAR spec's.

The fuel listed on the website is not the 16r fuel. I believe that is the standard 16%

Well after running this fuel over the weekend at the MWS Nitro runoffs. I am truly impressed with this fuel. My throttle response was nice and crisp and the engine ran with extremely good power. To my amazement the engine ran cooler (15-20f degrees)with more power than my previous fuel(Byron's 16%). I just hope the VP/Powermaster 16R fuel is not a limited fuel run just for the Ifmar 1/10 worlds this year.

Pass you soon...

Is oil content on 16R 7% or 8% and is it still a castor/synthetic blend?

6% castor
2% synthetic
