what do you use this car for exactly?

or should i say how small is that bottle!!


you seem to be running out of it like its only running on the stuff, not being funny at all but surely like alot of turbo owners who drive off boost, you dont use that nos everywhere you go?

you wanna be a bit less trigger happy and then you can afford decent tyres

on my power level it should last just over 2 minutes but why youd ever need it for more than 5-10secs at a time i dont know

and it costs almost 50quid to fill a bottle

altho soon it should cost me <£10 to fill a bottle, and then it'll be good value for money... at the moment its a TAD dear

Isn't it something like 3mins continuous use or something (depending on bottle size) A decent thrash I would have thought would polish off a bottle

Jim mate you owe me a spin in that car with a full bottle

wil aye, its STUPIDLY overpriced

direct from the pace that supplies hospitals etc. its about 5pence per LB

it costs about £6 per lb from places like power engineering

at the end of the day theres nothing special about it, its a bit of nitrogen and a bit of oxygen, NOT expensive to produce at all...
