Nitrogen in tires
I keep reading where folks are paying to run 100% nitrogen in their tires on a street car. It is a rip-off and you are being taken (and most likely laughed at behind your back by the guy who just took your money).
The atmosphere is already 78% nitrogen with 20% being oxygen. Replacing the 20% might be a consideration for an F1 car that is looking for any way to eek out an advantage over competitors regardless of the cost, but to do this on a street/DE car is a colossal waste IMO.
Feel free to chime in, I can tell you what the shop guys are saying about you because I have spoken to them. Spend your money on something other than the king's new clothes.
