You don't strike me as one looking for or caring what other people think, but the whole NOS deal completely discredits the work and theme you have done so far, both of which are of commendable quality. I'd ditch it ASAP. Mark Donohue is rolling over in his grave I'd bet.

It is a nice bracket, I just not sure if it belongs in your AMX given your intentions and the theme you seem to be shooting for. Either way good luck and mount it properly, blow down vent etc. etc.

Heh, interesting views, but I don't think Mark D is rolling over in his grave. N2O was used to gain an "advantage" going back to Smokey Yunick's time. In fact, Smokey was supposedly one of the first to try it. And there are legendary stories about NASCAR and other road racin' guys hiding N20 inside roll bar tubes, inside bottles in their uniforms, etc etc. So, I'm not "far off the mark" with my intentions. I'm just not hiding anything. Plus the bottle will be easily removed if not allowed or needed. And if I someday realize my dream of running the Maxton Mile or such, that N20 might be the "advantage" I need to get into the 200 MPH club.
