I like the RTR fuel myself because they have a little more oil in them. I use Sidewinder Backyard Basher RTR and I like it.. Most people will tell you how bad the RTR fuel sucks and how it messed up there motor or how it would run like crap, overheat and a little bit of anything else they can dream up and so on. I use the RTR fuel in a TRX 3.3, and a O.S .18 and both motors run like a top easy to tune and hold a tune... In the end I guess its what ever fuel you decide to use, but everyone else will tell you to use the race blend..

I used to run 33% Top Fuel in my other Revo 3.3 and never did have any type of problems with it either.. I can tell you this the higher in nitro you go the harder it is to tune and keep in tuned. I mainly run 20-25% with anywhere from 12-16% oil now and like the way my motors run and how easy they are to tune. I liked the 33%, it make your truck run like a scalded dog but it was just way to picky...
