Default bill to ban nitrous

Del. Albo from Springfield has introduced a bill in the General Assembly to ban NO2 in a car used on the highways unless the (1) feed line is diconnected from the engine or (2) the bottle is removed from the car. It is House Bill 564. You can read it here - http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp...=bil&val=hb564 .

Technically you are already not allowed NO2 in autocross. It is not legal to use in any of the classes and if you go by the letter of the rules it is not legal to have it even in the car while you run. I know it is a different issue to the drag racers, but I don't see it having any effect on autocrossers.

And how exactly are they going to enforce this? Funny smelling exaust is now going to be probable cause to search your vehicle?

What a stupid bullshit law made by bullshit represenatives in a bullshit state. They really have too much time on their hands

Some states already have this law, it's pretty easy to bypass...just disconnect the feed line from the tank when you don't need it (better have a good valve on that tank!)

not to be a dick but...

This has nothing to do with autocrossing, because weather the feed line is hooked up or not its not legal.
