whats good for aircraft engines is not good for car engines.
I gave my son similar advice when he bought his first car with a Mach 28 engine. I told him to just use his plane fuel which is 80/20 all castor and it ran like a charm

. As for what the shop owner told you, I wonder if he knows that ABC control line speed engines (which are far more powerful than car engines) use exactly the same fuel as we used in the car?
No engine
needs nitro, even one with very low compression.
so please tell me why this particular engine would not run on a custom mix of 20% oil which was a 50-50 mix of coolpower and castor, 75% methanol and 5% nitro ? this normal mix works fine in all my aircraft engines but definetly not in this car engine .
