yes it does, whenever u see "RTR" in a title, it comes with everything needed to run
i copied this off tower
"INCLUDES: HPI RS4 3 Evo+ oil-filled shocks, tuned pipe, 3.0cc engine, trimmed
and painted polycarbonate body, tires, foam inserts, wheels, decals
AM 27MHz 2-ch radio, Roto-Start and instructions
REQUIRES: AA Batteries: 12 (8 for radio, 4 for battery box)
6-Cell Flat Battery Pack: For Roto Start
Battery Charger: For Roto Start battery
Track Equipment: Fuel bottle, glow starter
Fuel: 2-stroke glow fuel with 10%-15% nitromethane, 16% lubricant-
Most of the fuels we carry meet or exceed the lubricant content
required for optimum performance and maximum engine life. In the
past, the conventional lubricant content used in fuel was 18%. But
with new advanced technologies, fuels like Red Alert and O'Donnell
for example, have a better quality of lubricants even though the
percentages of lubricant content are lower. These high-tech
lubricants provide exceptional cooling and protection."
hope it helps
