I've heard of NASCAR Modified teams spraying the air filter element with NOS, freezing it and placing it on the engine just before the qualifying laps.

What caused the explosion that happened to a Mopar Pro Stock Team years ago?. I believe it happened at a National event...

I once thought about wearing one the NOS "Let's Cheat" t-shirts to the track just for laughs but wisely thought better of it. But I did wear a t-shirt that stated "Just when you thought you had the rat race won, along comes a quicker rat" Dave Lebrun loved it and we laughed about it all summer long.

Jerry Eckman had a N20 explosion in pits IIRC.
