ya, so far my hobbie shops only carrie power fuel and sidewinder. i would have to say i love sidewinder way more. i found power fuel is hard to tune with. what do you guys think on switching fuel on a engine. i have a gallon of sidewinder and half a gallon of power right now though it b/c the hobby shop was out of sidwinder. he says he might be getting bryons in. will it be bad for it if a went though a gallon of sidewinder then power then bryons????? i heard that you shouldent change fuels,

Good info man, VP makes a great product. I've been using Sidewinder but I may have to switch to Nitrotane after hearing that. Nitrotane seems to be more common around here anyway.

For those of the RCU members who are unfamiliar with VP fuels, they manufacture fuel for all sorts of racing. Here is a list on their website:

Official fuel of IHRA and NHRA... and many more
