Default Got bored yesterday....

I was down to my last gallon of home brew so I mixed up 10 gallons of 81.25% methanol and 18.75% Omega pink oil. You might be wondering why the strange percentages...... It's simply because I can mix 24 oz of oil fast and easy with the measuring cup I have. If you mix 24 oz of oil to 104 oz of methanol, it makes a 128 oz gallon. Super simple.

It really feels good to know that I'm not at the mercy of the nitro suppliers, whatever their excuse for high nitro prices. I fiqure I have around $10 per gallon invested. My only local hobby shop wants $22 a gallon for 15% fuel, taxes included.

If you've never tried to mix your own, give it a shot. All of my engines run fine on 0%. OS .91 FS. Magnum .91 FS, Magnum .61 2s, and so on.

Anyway, just thought I'd share.
