I seem to recall, Tim,, that Bob was really ticked when he found out one of his boys, Billy, I presume,, hid some nitrous just to prove he could get it past the tech guys. He came clean afterwards,,, rumor was that the NOS wasn't on the car but in the driver's suit. Another urban legend??? I'm sure someone has the story memorized, but the details escape me,,, but it was very entertaining at the time.
