I wonder what would happen if you used a bottle of compressed liquid Oxygen rather then n2o :chuckles:

actualy i was just having that conversation with someone.. and i read somewhere that the nitrogen has a cooling effect in the combustion chamber in other words Pure oxgen would burn TOO hot, and hurt the motor unlike nitrous oxide so the nitrogen is like a buffer..
