Does the castor oil save you money with nitro? Because man it's expensive now

[@pgrcadventures1414]

No, it does not save any cost in fuel as synthetic oil from Klotz is the same price. Right now it has become nearly impossible to get pure nitromethane, and the price keeps rising.

@@pgrcadventures1414 dang. I was hopeful for a second. Don't know if it's worth keeping my old raptor 30 anymore. Parts are hard enough to find as it is.

Nice flying! What nitro %? Where do you get your fuel ingredients?

[@pgrcadventures1414]

Thank you, I end up blending ~22% nitro with ~22% oil. I buy KL-189 (synthentic oil, wont stain the pipe) from summit racing and blend pure methanol and nitromethane from Hyperfuels.

@@pgrcadventures1414 that's so cool! I literally just picked up a gallon of KL-189 at summit yesterday, but I didn't know where to get Nitro and Methanol. Thanks for the tip! 🙏

@@MikeG4936 Glad you are going to save some $$. Another tip, call Hyperfuels and talk to someone about your order, they will help get that shipping cost down. I blend 9 gallons at a time so I do not have to weigh and measure anything. I buy 2 gallons of oil, 2 of nitromethane and 5 methanol. Gives you the blend I mentioned above for the cost of 1 6-gallon case of VP from amain.
