Default Is it dangerous to spray in first gear?

I have a truck as you can see in my sig I will be spraying on a 6L if that makes any diference. I have been told the nitrous will pool up in the intake at lower rpms. I have a 3000 stall so as soon as the light turns green my truck will never see under 3000 until I let off. It wouldnt be spraying until I let off the brake and floored it cause I dont have to floor it to bring the rpms up to 3000.

Get a window switch and you are good. I recomend the FJO dual window switch.

For about a year now I've been spraying out of the hole in first gear all the way down to 1800 rpms with no problems, but you shouldn't shoot under 3000 rpms, I just don't listen to reason.

Basically what Im asking is is it going to blow my engine up if I spray through first gear from 3000 up.

It won't blow up your motor, you could have traction problems though.

Thats a good problem to have but not one that I would have. I have a special traction adder. 4WD. I am going to get some mt et streets for the track and to have fun out on the street with.
