Default nitrous refill bowling Green kentucky ?

Anyone know a place in bowling Green kentucky that will be open Saturday morning that could fill some bottles ? Complete long shot in the dark but the place around me the guy is on vacation and they can't fill and the other place stopped carrying it so I'm **** out of luck .

I'm leaving michigan tomorrow and will be there around 2am for a race Saturday. Will just run the na class if I can't get them filled but if anyone has any leads I would really appreciate it!

Thanks

Holler at Ray Hinton, he's out there at the same race with a couple nitrous cars. He might know how to get you fixed up.

Also you might try some local welding shops. Most [ but not all ] welding shops should have the provisions to fill bottles.

Good and bad .


Car ran 10.70s all day on motor in 98 degree heat and raced a guy in eliminations in the na class and won. Then on to the power adder class I had to race a turbo car from new Jersey . I had the 100 shot in it. It picked up 8 mph to the eighth and the car ran out of gear . It went 10.0s letting out a couple hundred feet early. It ran hard.

It's a stock headed lt1 with stock intake and a small hydraulic cam on e85 with a factory 95 ecu with the opti

Tony Shepard did reset the lt1 nitrous record at an 8.45

The car broke on my first nitrous pass . 99.9 percent sure it's the opti lol.

Compression checked it and it's perfect . Plugs good. Oil pressure is good valve train is good.

Everything mechanically I could check is good. The opti doesn't really like 7200 rpm lol! So I made it to the finals and had to disqualify because the car was done. Was dissapomted but had a great time

Opti problems....


At least it's good to hear the motor wasn't hurt or anything like that.


I've been to the LTX Shootout before... Just haven't been since switching to a better job!

Car's movin man! Get that opti sorted out and you'll really be making some steam.

Tony's car is awesome. He and Dave went down to Austin and max'd out a dyno before the shootout.

Thanks Brandon. I just took it apart about 3 hours ago and the one screw fell out if the rotor and the rotor was flipping around inside the cap lol and getting hit by the screw.

I saw that . Him and Carlos got two bad nitrous cars . Was cool watching them in finals . Got to talk to tony in the morning when he was wiping his car down from the dew. Crazy he has that car since high school in 1995


Here's a pic of my set up

Check this video out . You can hear the opti blow up at the end right before the finish line lol!


And a na run



Got a question do you guys think my exhaust could be a restriction. It's got long tubes into a 3 inch X pipe that dumps into the rear end with some 16 inch bullets . Where the x they had to bend it quite a bit and it's probably around 2..25 to 2.5 inches .
