Going back to the original question is Nitrous road legal, if it is then I say it's reasonable to use it in class D, if not save it for class H.

Its illegal to use nitrous on the road so its illegal in a road legal class.

i thinlk folk atre getting confused between the term "legal" and "allowed".

there is no written set of rules to show exactly what is and is not allowed in the respective classes, unlike say the MSA or PDRC. which sometimes specify nitrous or a turbo as a power adder, you can use one or the other but not both together, this is the case at the tuners classes at York, but seing as it does not specifically exclude nitrous i'd say it was allowed.

You have made the all to common mistake of assuming that a MOT means something, when if fact all it means is that the car pasted a series of tests on a certain day, it does not necessarily mean the car is road legal it does not necessarily mean the car is safe.

I have looked into this, I said its illegal to USE nitrous on the road, its perfectly OK to have it fitted.
Fastcarl, yes there is confusion, British Mini Showdown rules say slicks arent allowed in road classes as theyre not legal on the road, so as nitrous is not legal to use on the road , it shouldnt be allowed in road classes.
I cant see why you would want to use nitrous in a road class anyway, class H covers nitrous on the flyer that you get at the gate.
I have seen Stu Wrights dad use nitrous in class C though, I would have complained about it but he was 1 1/2 seconds behind me anyway so I didnt bother

Paul , who missinformed you about nitrous being illegal to use on the public roads,

it is perfectly legal, afterall it is only an oxident.
From Trevor Langfields mouth, there is no written law that states its use is illegal if used on a car or any other motorised vehicle, on the public road,

and if anyone is ever stopped by plod and told other wise,
you are to ask said plod exactly what law you would be breaking,
and the argument will end there and then.

they may make some bullshit noises about displaying stickers warning of the compressed gas in the car, but this only applies to carriers carrying over a said amount, not applicable to one bottle of nitrous, or any foam filled fire extingusher would get you in bother with old bill,

oh well nic!

when I had the agreed value done on my mini I listed all mods, at the time I had nos fitted, they where happy to insure me with nitroes if I gave them £100 more, I told them I would remove it it, as I thought £300 a year insurace for a car with over 360 bhp per ton was a bit steep

beat me to it carl, i remeber Trevor saying that there was no written law against it and that all they could "do" you for was not declaring it as a mod on the car
