[NSRCA-discussion] NITRO comment from PowerMaster

[Ihncheol Park]

Mark,
 
That is true, but since all the fuel manufacturers already increased fuel
prices (GP & Horizon are the only distributors carrying fuels).  We won't
get anything back this fall because of higher price of shipping and the
price will be going up again.  GP even increased price on my backordered
fuels.  
 
For now, we will see just the shortage of 30% fuels.
 
Powermaster's 20 & 30% DZ fuels are not even carried by GP or Horizon, so
those direct dealers for Powermaster fuels have to pay a little extra to get
the fuels.  Beside that, there is a minimum order amount.  I've waited for
the PM to call me, but haven't got a call.
When I called MorganFuels, they told me that they've stopped production of
30% fuels and 20% are available, but told me to ask my distributors for
fuels.
 
 
We just have to live with it or change to Electric!
 
Ihncheol

FYI, I got this from Laura Sorenson of PowerMaster Fuels...   

Combined with reports on CNN about the Chinese government shutting down a
LOT of manufacturing plants for pollution control prior to the Olympics and
this seems to ring true.  It would imply that the “shortage” is a temporary
inconvenience until fall.  

Anyway, PM still has nitro and is continuing to make 30% Blends.

Mark,

Yes there is a shortage and pricing has doubled. Main reason is the Olympics
in China. They are trying to clean up ( severe air pollution ) and the also
are closing many routes for security reasons. We are OK at this point and
still blending. We have orders that are waiting due to quantity limitations.
But these will be completed next week. Also, all our of blends are
available! There was a rumor that the 30DZ was D/C 'd. No changes in our
routine yet. Thanks for checking. They are saying that this will resolve
itself after all the China drama resolves!

Take care!!

Laura
