I just got a Gas powered RC car for the 1st time. and i have no idea what fuel to put into it ,
It's a pretty standard one , called "SmartTech"
It says Gas powered, But as i'm from Ireland we dont use Gas, we have Petrol. and i wanted to know if it's the same ?
if not what should i use?

I don't know of smartech, but im across the pond, so i looked it up. It seems to be inline with what i know. It runs on Nitro r/c car fuel. A hobby shop should stock it. If the directions state a nitro percentage, get that if not anthing from 10 to 25% Nitro will do. Keep in mind more nitro means you sould run the engine "richer" to avoid overheating it.
