So as the season nears an end in new Engladn I have started buying my fues by the quart. It could snow any day. Why have a full gallon..? I'd like to try 30% nitro in my matrix buggy. Would I need to make any changes to my engine or setup to run 30% nitro or is it just plug and play?

Yeah like C.H. said, it's not just plug and play with most engines. Some engines will require shimming at the head, a slight retune, and possibly a different glow plug depending on what you are using now. Might have to go to a med-cold or cold plug. Depending on what you are running in it now, you might not even notice a change in performance vs ?? to 30%. I've run 25% in mine with great success in the past and moved to 30% expecting more but in fact I noticed nothing and one engine no matter what I did I couldn't get anything, it actually suffered on the top end. Let us know what you get if you decide to jump up.
