Just curious after the exchange of ideas in the other nitrous threads.

I would hope not given that N20 isn't the natural air you breathe.

Well, if they can prove that they are unable to spray while competing in that class...I say go for it. Otherwise, they'd have to play with the other power adders.

It's not? :confused: I better put that canister and mask away before someone finds it. :lol:
Neither is the polution that we breath every day.

Why didn't you say this in the other nitrous thread...

Besides that...
Pure Nitros Oxide isn't "Natural" air and therefore isn't "Naturally Aspirating" the engine. If you can get a car to not only run, but race on just the pollutant air about the earth, let me know!:up:

I voted yes. Technically it is a mod like any other 'go fast' mod. Albeit an inexpensive big out mod.
As far as breathing N20, I have not only abused it in my high school days, but have used N2O in a mix while scuba diving at greater depths for greater time.

It's ridiculous to even think that spraying N2O is in any way similar to a NA engine. An engine is nothing more than a self propelled air pump. The more air you can pump through the more power you'll make. Therefore, everything else being equal, an engine ingesting giggle gas can never be considered naturally aspirated!
