RE: best fuels
Out of Traxxas, Blue Thunder, Maxxys, Trinity Platinum, and White Lightning, Blue thunder is my least favorite, while Maxxys and Trinity Platinum are my favorite.
Blue Thunder just didn't perform like I would like.
Traxxas was fine, but my hobby shop no longer carries it.
Maxxys was very good in my car, but I believe they just recently ran out of fuel or somthing.
Trinity Platinum had a huge performance gain compared to Blue Thunder
And White Lightning seems to run exactly the same a Trinity Platinum. So whichever my LHS has in stock I guess.

RE: best fuels
I used to always run Byrons fuels for my truck. I never had a problem with it, but I want to try the Morgan Sidewinder. Ive always used Morgan in my planes and Heli's. Mainly because they have an addative like afterrun oil. If you run morgan, you wont need after run oil even if you plan to store you engines for a while.

RE: best fuels
You don't have the option for "other". The guys around here aren't running any of the fuels you have listed. They're running 20% airplane fuel in their trucks. It has 18% oil (15%syn, 3% castor) which is all that most manufacturers recommend. We can buy it here locally for $15.00 a a gallon (yes, a gallon), which is a hell of a lot cheaper than any price I've seen on cans of "car" fuel.
Everybody can run all the car fuel they want, we'll keep running our airplane fuel.
