Where to buy fuel in bulk quantities

[LarryConrad]

Where are you getting fuel this season?

Our local club is getting ready to do a bulk order on fuel. We just got shot down by FHS Oils, they don't have any nitro.

Redmax told me 5 months ago that if the chemical laws dont quit changing & the Nitro dont get easier to purchase they would deplete there Nitro inventory & Quit Business. They quit selling drums 10-12 weeks ago.

UH-OH.......

I also just checked WWRF and ProNitro Nitromethane ™ 100% 53 Gallon Drum

$2,500.00 + shipping or $2235 for 30 gallons. Why would anyone even think about the 30 gallons. for $265 you get 23 more gallons :huh:

that's about $47+ per gallon. I thought the price was coming down after September and the Olympics we're over

Maybe you can get your Dad to whip up a batch of really tiny spark plugs at work, and we can convert to gas. :lol: Anybody make a micro mini ignition system?

[BB Mods's]

They make 1/4-32 spark plugs Here and just about any non micro-controller ignition can handle 40k rpm's of crank signal with stable fire rates.
