Default RE: fuel bottle questions

I have found that the most important aspect of a "Quality" fuel bottle is it's ability to hold fuel. There are a lot of so called "super hop up" fuel bottles out there, but after examining them you may find that they do not live up to all the hype.

I remember back in I think it was 03' I was at a race, and the guy next to me had the "Latest" fuel bottle. It was blue. Well he did not win that race I can tell you. It might have been that his fuel bottle was not able to hold as much fuel as the winners, or maybe it was that he crashed his car 3 times. Not sure, but I would not take any chances.

The best fuel bottle I have ever used I got at the LHS, it was clear and had red writing on it. I left it at the track one day, and I will never forgive myself. Poor red fuel bottle, I miss you.



/sarcasm

Sorry man, I can't think of any reason not to buy the cheapest one out there. I got an Ofna form Tower that was like dirt cheap. Works great, and only paid like 6.00 or so.

I have a venom 500cc fuel bottle and it works just fine. It doesnt leak or anything. I use it because it holds a lot of fuel. And it is just a good fuel bottle.
