everyone has their opinion.. but really.. if your just bashin around.. any 20% will do. A lot of people like the Trinity Monster Brew 20%.. sold in gallons only at your lhs.. usually 23.99. Any sport fuel will be fine.. wouldnt suggest race fuel until you learn how to tune.

Traxxas fuel is a joke. Sidewinder, trinity monster, byron 2000, are the best ones I have ever used. I am currently using byron 2000 blend and for racing I go with odonnell fuel.
The fuel you use to break in the engine is the fuel you should use for its whole life. You will get the most life out of the engine that way.

Eliminator is some of the best I have used. Makes trinity look like a joke. Go for the 18% oil blend, it'll treat you right. They use Sunoco Methanol AND Nitromethane and Klotz lubricants. Cant really come up with a better combination than that.
