Any good 2-cycle premix oil will work fine.
That said, I've found Silkolene Comp2 vastly superior to many others. _________________ Chaz Clover

Bob,
I think Jim jr. would agree with me that Xeramic would be a good choice.
Might even be a guy at your track with it.
How did I do Jim jr????

Bob -
If you intend to race with a specific club or series, find out what their spec mix is (fuel type, oil type, and mix ratio) and stick with that. Two reasons:
* You want to "tune" to the same fuel you will be using at the races. Trying to diagnose a "new fuel" problem is the last thing you want to worry about.
* You don't want to end up with multiple jugs of mixed fuel at home, all different ages and brands.
Keep things simple, whenever possible. |

The manual states 8oz. per gallon of castor based 2-cycle racing oil.
There are many good brands. As Joe stated Xeramic is a good choice. This is what I use in my engines.
