Vp Racing fuel

[Crazybajabuild]

Hey guys my local gas station has started selling vp racing fuel. Im.looking for a good fuel to run in my baja w/ g290. There's so much to choose from though so was hoping these pics would give an idea on what they have. Maybe someone can point me in the right direction.

Don't buy premix. Get straight fuel for a 4 stroke and mix it yourself as we need a higher oil content then what the epa likes...
Also word of warning C12 has lead in it so don't sniff the fumes too long. I have c12 and don't see a noticeable difference

See if he can get you the VP small fuel it’s 94 octane and ethanol free comes in gallon and 5gallon pail . It’s all I have ever run it’s great fuel and mix with your favorite 2 stroke oil , mine is Amsoil Dominator.

Around me there is no ethanol free pump fuel. Really sucks but at least I can get this VP94

Im in same boat as MGP. So I buy the VP 4 cycle 94 octane ethanol free small engine fuel from my local Ace. (Same stuff he posted) I was getting 5 gallons after my coupons for usually around 70 bucks out the door. Just looked it up as I actually am gonna need some more and just like everything these days it has gone up in price and its now $89.99 for 5 gallon bucket of it. Lasts me a good while so it is what it is. Wish I had some cheap ethanol free pump gas anywhere near me.

tbh you can just run regular pump gas.. just don't store for long periods with it... i hear c9 and c12 is fine... but i doubt you will see any diference from just pump gas

Not pump gas around me as I stated. Ethanol causes problems with small engine carburetors . I keep fuel in my car for up to 2 years and the VP94 fuel has a shelf life of 5 years unopened

Yes amsoil it is for me too. I got a few general stores that sell it. And I'm sure they can get that same fuel also. Il have to try it.
What would I have to do to this g290 to make it rip hard? I was thinking a lightened flywheel from ddm, 9000+ clutch spring. Are there any other tricks to get more power? It's roughly got 8 tanks through it. I think it goes great but more power wouldn't hurt

I would not put a lightened flywheel on for a Basher. You want all the cooling you can get. Do you have a pipe on it yet ?

Maybe a 990 Carb. If you want more power you could get a long block 30.5 Reedcase from OBR full mod or signature series and swap everything from your G290 onto the lock block.

No offense to ddm but your really holding the potential of any engine back with that dom pipe. My opinion is it just gets you in the game for an aftermarket pipe and some noise but your not getting the full potential of a tuned pipe... I say this with confidence as I too had a dom pipe for my vekta and once I got a vrc the poweband was much better and the "hit" was hard

I agree. A Bartolone pipe will definitely let it rev
