Status: offline 		Last year our club members ordered 33 cases of Magnum Fuel (Denver CO)
http://members.aol.com/magnumfuel/price.html
We got a discount off of these prices and shipping was included in the price.
We all got 'Premium Sport Fuel' in various nitro and oil contents.
If you decide to go with them, you will have to deal with them by phone.
They do not do web based ordering and if they respond to email at all it's usually just "give us a call".
We've been very happy with the fuel. I bought 12 gallons.
A club member bought 4 from me and I've used 4, so I still have a supply.
If the membership decides to coordinate another buy, I'll definitely participate.

The price list hasn't been updated since 2002 but someone from the club talked to Buzz in May 2004 and he said the prices anbd discount were still the same

I do not know if Yuma is near Tucson. This is an Arizona Magnum Fuel dealer listed on the web site.

That's my local distributor and thats what many people on the East Coast use. go to maxysfuel.com and check out there site. Im sure it has a an e-mail adress where you can contact them out. They also offer free shipping but i do not know what is the min that you have to buy.

Hobby Barn is still in business in Tucson. The email is www.hobbybarn.com. They used to sell Byrons and Morgan fuels. Tucson has at least 5 R/C clubs. There are a number of hobby shops in Tucson.

Cheers
