Isnt this the stuff top fuel dragsters mess with? Could this stuff really be considered safe?

Sounds like it would be worth a try! You first..

I'm tempted to try that. It's intended to be mixed with their Methanol injection system, and I'm not sure how the SMC pump would hold up to it....

It sounds like it adds oxygen to the mix, a good thing if you are watching EGT's...

There are a lot of bells and whistles on that injection system. I kinda like the idea of the modulated alchy delivery system. I wonder if they are increasing pump speed with boost...

I wonder how much improverment there would be with mixing nitromethane with the alchy mix. It could get pretty expensive paying 30 bucks (plus shipping) for what appears to be an 8 ounce bottle. (I notice they don't say how much you are getting...)

Let's say you run it 50-50 with the alchy. At most you would be inserting 5 ounces to a quarter mile run?

Then again, look at what a little propane does for horsepower.
Safe to use? As long as you can run methanol (like that kit) it seems like it would be ok.

Like I said...you first

I think I'm going to give it shot. What the heck it's been two years since I replaced the Head Gaskets.

It looks like it has Nitro, along with other fuel and octane booster. Nitro by itself is really low octane. I would like to see how well this works. I think that this willbe just like using nitrous. It just adds more oxygen to the system. Good luck, ERIC.

Let me know the percent of nitro in it if you buy it.I am wondering if it isn't just model airplane fuel remarketed in a bottle and sold at a higher price.

Model airplane fuel comes in 5% to 50% nitro and is mixed with alky and caster oil.If you get some maybe we can find out what it is and use it at a cheaper price.

I had a friend who ran circletrack and used to cheat by adding about 1-2% nitromethane to his fuel, it would definately help his track times and never hurt anything. He tried more but you could smell it so he backed off. Anyways, if I remember right he was paying about $30 for a gallon locally, sounds alot cheaper than $29.95+shipping for 8oz (maybe 16oz)
