My thinking:

Race gas is oxygenated to burn more fuel with the same amount of intake air using the same metered amount of fuel and air. Important to note is that race gas does not have enough oxygenation to burn without any air.

Using that, we know that we still need intake air to burn race gas. Yes. Okay. So my thought is adding NO2 just means you can pump even more fuel in. From this standpoint, my thought is that NO2 and race gas are independent variables and should really just benefit each other.

Thanks my thoughts. No prior experience with race gas other than knowing that telltale smell.


Badass build so far, Eric. Glad it started up and ran!!
