Just tried sidewinder 25% from rotor and found the pick up from still to full speed is quite smooth with plenty of smoke.. Can start from very slow to so fast that it cover my multistorey car within secs.

As for the oils that came out of the exhaust, it might be lub oil but i dunno how to see, unless can tell me how to..

Oh if you get fuel from rotor just make sure its for a car and not heli or plane.

On the tack running... to make sure moisture don't get in the engine and cause corrosion or leave it too long and allow the lubricant to clog up the engine.

Blue fuel? Must be blue thunder then. the one with some super duper lubricating formula to prevent your engine from damage should u accidently over lean it. Or so they claim.
