2-cycle engine oil+gas????
 
Just wondering if you could you use 2-cycle engine oil + gas in rc cars?

In some very large cars (1/6th scale and bigger) they used weed-trimmer style engines, obviously those use Gas and oil mixture.

In a NITRO car or truck NO. It needs to burn a combination of Nitro methanol, Methanol, and oil.

Definately not. Unless you go 1/6th scale or larger, then yes. It's much cheaper but unfortunately we can't use it in our nitro engines.

Most people say that O'Donnell is the best.

Maybe Nitromethane.. not nitro methanol.
