As for race fuel not having enough oil for break in.. this has been proven to be a myth, as again, we break our engines in with the same fuel we race with.. this was before EBIS and some of us still break our engines in that way...


now back to the topic at hand. you need to take you engine out out and have a good look at it. I believe you have a leak some where. and also get the hanger exhaust . have a look at the head make sure it is not cracked. make sure the head is tighten down properly, but I will say if all that oil is come from ez start you may have a leaky one way bearing which was always a problem these cars. if you having problems on a new vehicle, you can send the engine back to Traxxas for a look. they may send you a new one.

but your clutch needs attending to first and for most then the leak

good luck
