That is what I was afraid of John.I'm still waiting to hear back from Glenn @ Novarossi about getting fuel shipped to me. Thanks for the input guys.Last year I called the factory and talked with the factory engineers about the Nitrotane fuel blend. I explained to him what we were doing with the boats and the fuels we traditionally use. They would not tell me exactly what the oil % was in the fuel but told me that the fuel is CAR fuel and it does not have anywhere close to the oil we use in boats - generally 15% or higher. I tried to pin him down closer to the number and I used 8-10% as a range and he coughed to acknowledge the approximate amount. That is the best I could get out of him as he could not SAY what it was. And the type of oil is greatly different as well.
I know of a club member that used it in a boat and in half a tank he cooked an engine. I would not use it for our boats as our engines costs too much $$$.
I also called the TRAXXAS factory and got the very same information. Buyer beware.
