speaking of the drag car. i had an old guy tell me once to put about a cup of nitromethane in my tank everytime i filled up, this was with a 48 gal tank and when we were runnin 73% nitro 27% methanol. i wonder what it would do in a diesel? i've heard of racing planes adding nitromethane to there fuel also

I would say It would blow the heads off if it makes it through the injection pump without slowly destroying it I would imagine it wouldn't have the lubricity needed this crappy low sulfur diesel fuel is bad enough

very true. diesels are much closer to the compression required to ignite nitro properly than gassers are. i looked it up yesterday what the compression is supposed to be on a 12 valve but i don't remember now. but we run 19.5:1 on the drag car
