Nitro Fuel ?

[DGCON]

Been out of RC for about 5 years . Do they still make trinity monster fuel ? What is everybody running ?

I use Sidewinder basher blend 20% in all my nitro trucks, not sure if trinity is still around anymore.....

 

[rcnut14]

yes, they make trinity, I use backyard basher or sidewinder. they both give you great lube, and are consistent. welcome to the forum and back to the addiction🙂

I used to run Trinity I swapped to Byrons couldn't find the trinity anymore

 

[rcnut14]

@griff, they sell it at my lhs

 

[griff7373]

They don't sell it round here I tried all the local shops based on trinity's site that they sell it Byrons and traxxas are bout the only 2 I could find.

I used to run Trinity Monster Horsepower fuel for years. Now I can't find it anywhere. I went to Sidewinder Race fuel now.

 

[rcnut14]

yea, they still have it in pa

 

[rcnut14]

ive only seen it in quarts, though.

 

[Jam Racing 1]

I buy all mine in quarts anyway, but have never used trinity fuel that I can remember, way back in the 90's we used blue thunder caz thats what was in the shop we used......

I use Torco 20%. I get it off of ebay for $112 for 4 gallons shipped to my door, pretty cheap concidering they want $15 a quart at the LHS, that is $60 a gallon.

I get mine for 8.99 a quart, if I buy gallons it is 35.99 so is about even. I buy all my needs for the year and hide it away 🙂

9$ a Quart?! I pay 21$ per gallon. { it's sidewinder] it works great

 

[Jam Racing 1]

21 a gallon is about what we paid when i was racing in the 90's 🙂
keep buyin it there for gosh sakes lol

 

[rcnut14]

you can find it anywhere it sidwinder 20% nitro12% oil. it works great, and no need for after run oil

that is the fuels sold by horizon, that is where most everyone gets their fuel, just fyi Morgan fuels makes both byrons and sidewinder fuels also 🙂 Jame gives me a pretty good deal at 8.99 a quart considering it is 13.59 at horizon by the quart

that was takin from my lhs website. as u can see, they carry trinity.

 

[rcnut14]

I want to say that the green stuff was monster? I never bought it, I just remember seeing it

 

[chrome]

I used to run Traxxas but tried Torco and havnt looked back since. My trucks make awesome power with the Torco. Besides Torco is the top fuel of drag racers running nitro methane, if I is good enough for a top fuel dragster it is surely good enough for my toys.

 

[fz1dave]

Nobody mentioned o donnell, which is what I use in my big blocks. But it sounds like your lhs stuff, trinity, is good too. Just only run traxxas fuel in traxxas engines.lol

 

[DGCON]

I sent trinity a email I will find out . And post what they tell me , If not I will go with Byron's or Odonnels not traxxas . I have a revo and t-maxx as well and I always used trinity monster 20% . Unfortunately the nearest RC shop is a hour away from me

 

[rcnut14]

[DGCON]

[Jam Racing 1]
