  1. Bashing
I am running a savge xl 5.9 big block. I started with Backyard basher 20% nitro methane and 16% oil. I just changed to Odonnell Racing fuel 30% nitro methane.
I do notice a little of a differance in the set up but the performance is about the same.
What does everyone else use that has been the best for them?
Is it ok to change brands of Fuel?
 
I preferred Trinity MHP. It seems that everyone has their own preference so find one thats available locally, makes power and is consistent and stick with that.
 
i just tried the tower power 20% because i had a brand new quart sitting around in my garage. i was a little skeptical at first but i gotta say i was impressed with the results. and it's got a great smell. i've been using odonnel 20% and i don't notice a difference. and odonnel didn't really have a smell to it.
 
I definitely run 30% but the brand depends on where I can get it. I have ran HPI all along but now I am in Kuwait and can only get one house brand and Odonnels. I ran the house brand for one gallon and it was really good, all out now and going to switch to odonnel next to see how it works.

I use odonnell's "ready2run" fuel 20% it is an excellent blend compared to other brands i started out with
