Nitro fuel that NHRA use?
What's the difference the NItro the NHRA guys use? I go every couple years to the drags in Dallas, and love the smell of the stuff. Now my garage has that smell. I just wondered what the difference is to the RC fuel and Drag fuel.

Drag fuel is 90% Notromethane and 10% Methanol.
RC fuel is 20-30% Nitromethane, 10-20% oil and the rest Methanol.
The Methanol and Nitromethane used are the same.

WOW. [sm=what_smile.gif]
No wonder they are so friggin' loud. I can only imagine what it feels like to go 0-300 mph in 4 seconds.
