What do you pay for nitrous? I think im going to start buying a pretty large amount and getting my own filling station. I could do refills pretty cheap. The best thing to do would be swap out bottles so you dont have to drive to the shop, but you could do that if you wanted to.

Thats not bad. I was thinking about doing them for $35. Most places Ive seen have went up from $40.

$3 a pound is an awesome deal. Me and another guy ran the numbers on it and you will pay at cost around $2.25 a pound for it at cost, with waste included in that.

It was $3.50-4.00 a pound around here if I was willing to drive 45 minutes to get it.

$5/pound locally.

I drove cause it was an excuse to go to Hooters, :D

the silver camaro that has the fulton tag on the front, and its a 10.5 car? if so, i dont think it ran 4 teens, the current record for 10.5 outlaw is in the 4.30s by tim lynch. at least last i heard it was!

It runs low to mid 4's, and Terry doesn't own that car anymore. He sold it and everything associated with it, even the trailer for it.

since its running low 4's, does this car not have the e.t. record for 10.5?

Yeah you are right, this is just a local pos. 4.40's and 4.50's. He held the e.t. and mph record for a while, but then just got out of it.

He lives about 3 min from me. He beat Billy Glidden when he came to Shady side and won the world nationals in Orlando one year.
