JATO rockets...

C and D rockets on a Bit? Sounds like the guy who put a JATO rocket on his '63 Impala. And you all read how he ended up in the Darwin Awards didn't you? He he he...

And as a clarification, NOS, N20, Nitrous, or whatever you prefer to call it isn't fuel for the engine. It's just a more convenient form of oxygen for your vehicle. This is why you MUST add extra fuel when you give your engine a shot of nitrous. Otherwise you lean the engine way out, and pre-ignition and bad things your engine doesn't like start to happen. It's just supplying more oxygen like blow blower or turbo would...it just happens to come in bottle form!

Anyways, I might have to go throw a JATO booster on one of my Zips now...see if I can melt my brakes, and crash into a cliff!

Laters y'all

Chris
