Questions?? Mix my own fuel ?

Hi guys

I would like to mix my own fuel!

I would like to hear some suggestions on which oils to use - I plan to use a mix of castor oil and synthetic oil.

It is intended for use in 1/8 buggy race.

How does this mixture sound like ?

25% Nitro
65% Methanol
7% Synthetic oil ( AeroSynt3 ????? )
3% Castor oil ( Maxima Castor 927 ???? )

I live in Denmark - and may only be able to get chemicals from Europe, because of customs.. hmm..

Thanks guys

I used to mix my own fuel. I used klotz kl200 synthetic and klotz benol castor. I mixed a ratio of 9% kl200 and 3% benol. Never had a problem

Thank you guys! I decided to go with Capricorn fuels instead of mixing my own. Saves me the trouble, and the possibility of self inflicted mishaps!
