Never Mind Gas Prices Nitro Prices YIKE!!!

Wow just bought some fuel and the price has jumped dramatically. I have been told its because the cost of nitro has increased due to a lack of supply. Don't be surprised by up to a $5 increase per jug. You might want to grab what you can before a new shipment comes in.

Hmmm - looks like it's time to convert to gas... that is only $1.29 / litre = $5.87 / Gallon.

WHAT A BARGAIN!

Oh lord did I actually say that??

I'm going to go and wash my mouth out with soap now...
