Default which fuel to use

I have been using Trinity 25% fuel in my old buggy. Now I have a new one and am having a real problem finding it. I've been thinking about using Traxxas 20% because it's readily available. Can anyone tell me if that is a good idea or not? Thanks for the help.

you can use any brand and almost any percentage from 15% to 30% byrons, and VP power master are the two best I have ever used. avoid traxxas fuel, it is the worst on the market and costs more than byrons!!!

Ive used the Byron fuel, and it worked pretty well. I was using the RTR fuel, which had 20% nitro, and I think 15% oil just to keep the motor well lubricated. worked great for the motor, but it kinda lost some power for racing.
