Robitronic Turbo Fuel Gun

Just like in full-scale racing, pit times for RC races need to be as quick and efficient as possible. I just saw on RedRC.net that Robitronic have released a fuel fun that they claim will fill the fuel tank in less than 2 seconds.

The reservoir is semi-transparent and it has a fuel gauge to let you know precisely how much fuel you have put into the car. It also has holes in the front aluminum cap that will shut off automatically when the tank is full.
