I wrote O'donnell's an email because I was wondering what % of oil they had in their racing fuels and the rtr because I had read that there was less oil in the racing blends. I had asked about 3 different blends they have the racing %25, racing 30% and the RTR blends. I was suprised to read the reply I will past it below.

I had asked about their plugs too

Thank you for your recent e-mail. Although O'Donnell doesn't provide the exact percentage number the packages are the equivalent of 18%. The plug you use will partially depend on what nitro content you are using. I would suggest using one of the 1/8 off road plugs.
I hope you find this information helpful. Should you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at this email address. (Please be sure to copy all previous emails into any future questions.)

Wow thats interesting how they worded it!! i read this a while ago that some race fuels oil holds up equivalent to a fuel with alot more oil but they probabally have a lot less oil content (probabally a better oil and lubricants added) but racers don't worry as much about engine conservation as they do squeezing every ounce of power from there mills! The only thing i see really that the higher oil content fuels do is maybe be a little more forgiving when tuning!! with race fuel u have to be careful thats all

I was thinking maybe because it is synithic, their rtr fuels don't mention synithic but they do in the racing fuels.

for me I M having a much easier time tuning since I ve been using the 25%. Maybe I am just getting better, maybe the enigen is broken in better///

Later,

John
