    Default Fuel and Oil

    I purchased an ITS rx7 and was wondering what everyone was using for there fuel and oil choice. The oil injection system has been disabled so I will be mixing the oil with the gas.The first event I am going to is a open track day at Putnam Park, so I am not concerned with the fuel being legal at this point.
    Thanks for the help.

    people seem to be all over the board on this.
    when i started I asked lots of people and heard everything from no oil to 50-1. I settled on 200 to 1 (4oz. in 6 gal.) and have had good luck. brand name 2 cycle oil for water cooled engines. I use 87 octane pump gas.

    I third what Chris said. Where in Indiana are you located? Who are you driving at Putnam with?

    Paul,
    I am located southwest of Indy just past Moooresville,In. The Mustang club of Indy is having a open track day on Oct 25 and Oct 26 ,it is open to all makes of cars(closed wheel). I talked to the club rep and the olny rules for the track day are DOT APPROVED tires and NO open headers.There will not be any racing going on just track time. Will the 87 octane pump gas pass tech at an SCCA event, I always had to run CAM2 110 octane leaded gas when I raced karts or it would fail on the Digatron meter.
    Here is the web address if any one else is interested
    www.indymustangclub.com
    Thanks for the info,
    Mike Flock
