Any tc-w3 oil is fine just like Redfc said.
I prefer Idemitsu premix though more then other brands.

I use PWC 2stroke. But any TC-W3 2stroke oil would work fine, like RedFC said


And you will need to get used to people saying your car smells like a lawn mower....
I get that every time I go somewhere, lol

I just ordered idemitsu myself. I'd rather play it safe. And since I've seen a few of your other threads, you seem to be the same way. Order a case, take it in the *** on shipping, and make sure you got the good stuff.

I use redline synthetic racing two-stroke. It's spendy but I put maybe 6000 miles on my car a year and a good portion of those are on track.

Maxima Castor 927. I've been running this stuff since the late 90s on all sorts of setups without any failures. NA, supercharged, turbo'd, N2O, N2O and supercharged rotaries....no problems at all. Most motorcycle shops carry the small bottles, but you can have them order you the 64 oz (what I use) for about $30. Plus, it smells terrific and burns clean!
