New Fuel from TiltedRC

Tilted Green and Tilted Clean are 2 new fuels from Tilted RC and the Tiltyard crew.
I had the opportunity to try both of these new products over the last couple of weeks, and I came away impressed with the results.
Tilted Green and Tilted Clean are the same blends, except for the green coloring in the Tilted Green. I liked the green color as it made it much easier to see how much fuel was in my fuel tank. I tested both fuels back to back to see if the added color effected the performance of the fuel, and I am happy to say that there was virtually zero difference.
The fuel has an oil content of 11% with a mixture of castor and synthetic lubricants which will provide excellent protection for your high revving nitro engines.
What I first noticed when I fired my engine up for the first time, was the increase of smoke from the exhaust. This told me that the oil content was a little higher than my previous fuels. At this point I was skeptical that the Tilted Green fuel would make as much power as I was used to.
Once I hit the track, the engine needed a few small adjustments to run cleanly, but once it was tuned, my previous skepticism was quickly forgotten about and I had great power from the engine. I noticed that I was still getting quite a bit of smoke from the exhaust, but this made it much easier to tell how the engine is running.
I ran a few tanks through the engine making sure the engine was tuned properly for the days races, and then went back to the pits to make some chassis adjustments.
When I pulled the body off the car, there was significant oil residue on the side of the body. This tells me that there is plenty of oil in the fuel to protect your expensive engines.
I don't normally tune my engines by temperature, but I was curious about it, so after the first qualifier, I grabbed the temp gun and temped my engine....it came off the track at 208!!!!! With the temp in this range and the amount of smoke coming from the engine I was worried that it was running a little rich, so I looked at the fuel tank and there was still just under half a tank left!!!!
For the second qualifier, I decided to lean both the top and bottom needles an hour and see if there was still more power left to be found. This time around the car was significantly faster but still had plenty of smoke, and came off at 220 degrees. I also had half a tank left after the 5 minute qualifier.
My conclusions after the day of racing is that Tilted Green and Tilted Clean fuels are definatly great fuels, with great run time, amazing power, and offer additional protection for your engines.
My recommendation is to run the Tilted Green as it is much easier to see how much fuel you have in your bottle and your tank, however, you can't go wrong with either Tilted Green or Tilted Clean.
