What's you fav. fuel? - Mr. Tune - 07-02-2005
If you pick other, post up your choice.
Let's find out which fuel is used the most here.
My pick would be trinity, the horsepower blend to be exact (purple stuff).
What's you fav. fuel? - Michowski - 07-02-2005
since i started using maxy's my engine makes more power at the same tune and runs cooler. I can now feel like i am over revving because it just winds out really fast now.

What's you fav. fuel? - slim - 07-04-2005
<---- sponsored by maxys....wonder which one i voted for??
i used to run white lightning, loved it...
thought about selling maxys here in illinois, but didnt wanna invest on the unsure...and also didnt wanna step on shops toes as id prollly just sell it on the side at a race...
anyone interested...?? maybe ill reconsider..
What's you fav. fuel? - Tex - 07-04-2005
I would like to try Maxy's, I've only heard great things about it.
What blend would you sell? (ex: 30% nitro/ 10% lube)
How much would a gallon of 30% go?
What's you fav. fuel? - slim - 07-04-2005
id prolly get both, but most would be 30 i spoze....
itd be right about the same price as others 23-25 id imagine... maybe, what ever price it would sell good at.
What's you fav. fuel? - thenewguy821 - 07-04-2005
Slim, I have been running 40% White Lightning, and love the results. How would you compare the White Lightning to the Maxy's? I'm assuming there would be a drop in performance from the 40% to 30%, but how much of a drop? Since you have run both White Lightning and Maxy's (forgetting about being sponsered by Maxy's) What would you say is the difference. Feel free to answer in PM if you wish. Thanks.
What's you fav. fuel? - slim - 07-04-2005
TBH... they are both great fuels... if i ever gave up maxys id use the WL....
WL left a bad taste in my mouth, i bought 1 more gal before LH's winter gas champs...
the weekend before i broke in my new RB with WL and used that gallon a few nights before at pratice, and it was great... start the heats and used the new WL gallon, and i misses 4 of 6 quals because it would not stay running for nothing...... i switched motors and it was ok.... but did nothing to the rb and went to maxys and it ran perfect....
i broke in 2 motors with WL and all has been well, BUT id like a little more oil than 8% on breakin.
clif notes: both are top notch, and wow 40%?? man!
What's you fav. fuel? - Tex - 09-13-2005
hey slim, I'm looking to switch to Maxy's 30% with the least amount of lube possible (I live life on the edge. lol)
What % of Lube is maxy's available at? 8, 10, 12, 14???? I understand they will custom blend also.
I'd assume you get it by the case? Let me know if you want to sell a gallon or two!

Well since I had a sportmaxx and a revo, and was told to use only TopFuel, I would have to say TopFuel. Of course when I get back into nitro, I'm going to try the others as well.
What's you fav. fuel? - rocco79 - 09-23-2005
32 gallons?!?!?!! Jeezz!! Thats alota fuel!!
What's you fav. fuel? - Tex - 09-23-2005
if (8) of us went in on 4 gallons a piece it wouldn't be bad. (4) gallons will last you awhile!

Bandit,
I asked this same question (on this board) when I bought my Revo. After many inputs from the members I decided AGAINST TopFuel and continued to run the Odonnell's 20% that I was already using in my cars. Traxxas propaganda.
What's you fav. fuel? - slim - 09-23-2005
i get free shipping at that point which if you ever ordered fuel you know its not cheap and add the haz mat fee.....
What's you fav. fuel? - Tex - 09-23-2005
question is, would it be cheaper for the 8 of us going in on it and what would a gallon cost after all said and done. I know it would be chaper than 23-25$ a gallon. Prolly around 18-20$ I'm guessing.
What's you fav. fuel? - RobH - 09-23-2005
at $20 a gallon, I would take 4 gallons.
What's you fav. fuel? - slim - 09-23-2005
ok, what % are you guys wanting? id suggest 30% as it has better cooling.
get a list together and ill call and get current pricing.
and figure out how good i can hook you up.

Yeah I'd like 30% also.
Do you think you could have the fuel by the next berwyn bash? So I could buy it from you there.
What's you fav. fuel? - slim - 09-23-2005
i doubt it... it take 2 weeks to ship a case... im lucky if i can get mine for NEXT weekend and i ordered it monday or tues this week.... that and it takes a small wad of cash to order it...not rich yet, but workin on it! lol
What's you fav. fuel? - Tex - 09-23-2005
30%
What's you fav. fuel? - Michowski - 09-24-2005
tex you'll love maxy's. It made my engine run at the same tune from a 250 to 190 from only switching fuel. I literally had to keep leaning my motor out to try to get it at a warmer temp. And the power it made was just amazing. Clean and crisp low end, lots of top end. It just makes your motor into a power hungry motor that can never seem to go as fast as it wants to lol. And slim how did you get maxy's for 20 a gallon? I payed 120 shipped for my case and that equals out to be 30 bucks a gallon. Is it because you order a lot more then me? And possibly a sponsorship?
