Nitrous at trackdays

Post by Rob S »

Gents,
Chavtastic image aside, has anyone on here got it, and does anyone know how tracks view its use?
Just interested, be nice to know before I see the guy who I hope'll be building my new engine.
Thanks!

Rob

please take professional advice on this before you start opening your wallet. The results of steaming on without doing so are not to be taken lightly mate. No sense in going for a quick fix if the longer term issues outweigh the short term benefits.

Will discuss over spare ribs and beer :nod:

Thanks Gary/Stu,
I m in no rush to be separated from my hard earnt, just did nt want it offered as an option without knowing if it would be allowed.
Still aiming for the capacity increase, just pondering this as well.
Thanks again.
PS Stu, beer and car talk, perfect!

This is brilliant. Stu looking out for his little brother, just in case he ends up quicker, albeit in short bursts :grin:

If you're having a discussion over BBQ and beers, can I come and listen? I don't like talking with my mouth full :-D

Put me down for a pax ride when the new builds finished Rob! :thumb:

just re fitted my nos back to my car after it went pop on a rolling road the other year, using it on the track would be expensive as it would nearly always be active and probably not last the day leaving you with dissapointment with the lack of power, but ill let you know as ill probably fit it to our track golf in the future and see how long the bottle lasts.
