Im using Redline Racing 2 stroke synthetic race oil. Two years of abuse in a mod marine engine and running strong with no signs of wear...soon to be used in my baja 5T project. I mix at 25:1 in the boat. Will be mixing at 32:1 for the baja.
You will be fine if you use a good quality 2 stroke oil.

Be aware that these engines run at up to 21000rpm so you should use the best racing quality oil that you can.
I personally use :-
"Castrol A747 which is a very high performance, low ash, part synthetic lubricant with castor oil, specially formulated for use in multi-cylinder, water-cooled two stroke engines".
or
"Castrol XR77 which is the ultimate pre-mix racing 2-stroke engine oil, designed to work with all the latest engines and fuels, including unleaded".
When I first started racing I used Venom but found that this created heavy carbon deposits. Since using 747 I have never found any carbon and the inside of the engine is like new.
Because 747 is so good I find I can use at 40-1 without any problems. In fact I have just done a full season of racing without even needing a ring change and I don't intend changing it yet.
At 40-1 you have a very slightly higher fuel content so more power
and less unburnt oil and smoke out of the exhaust.
