Nitromethane from RC Car Fuel?

[Roverdose]

looking back over the thread there is a good few paragraphs on page 5.

To deter detonation or other engine damange, it is always necessary to reduce the compression ratio when nitro is used.

Igniting high percentage nitro is always a problem. Top Fuel dragsters run the equivalent of a mini welder delivering 1.2 amps to each spark plug. As higher percentages of nitro are burned, the combustion rate is reduced Therefore, the spark advance must be increased.
