Default sidewinder?

Guy's, the LHS is carrying Sidewinder Pro 20% with 10% oil. Anyone have issues with this in the 3.3? I've been using traxxas 20% and wanted to break away from the high oil content.
They have this also...Wildcat Eliminator Pro 20% 10% oil.

Oh yeah, I have a Q for KILLA…I think my tires are flat and don't see a way to air them up? Help me bro…LOL

Wish I could get some Byron fuel to my door cheap. I'd like to try some of that.

I run sidewinder, its a good fuel. The only fuel I would get instead of sidewinder would be Byrons Gen 2.

I never had any problems with it in my TRX 2.5R or in my STS21B, and STS 30. you will have to retune for the lower oil%

(BTW you don't put air in the tires)

I know I was just giving KILLA FISH a hard time. I figured he'd give me a quirky come back.
On a serious note I have read where peole ask how much air to run...Silly noobs what can you do with them?

Your're right...I was a noob once. I shouldn't talk, probably one of the dumbest. Back before the Internet and a good LHS. Its amazing how my R/C 's lived without instructions (lost) to refer back too and experienced hobbyist's to help. Ahh...bitter sweet memories of that car running over my buggy cuz I didn't have the hang of which direction the steering went as it was coming at you. I was the proud owner of half a Tamiya Holeshot. Or the time I found out batteries and water don't mix, now that was impressive. Then there was that short expensive memory involving an airplane. Come to think of...I'm still a noob!!!! AAArrrgggh!! Must... BUY...... NEW.....RC TO..... FFFEEL.....B. B.. BETTER......
