Lightbulb nitro fuel in a road car = ?

me and a mate were wondering that if you mixed the nitro fuel and petrol together with the right % of each one will it make a road car an faster, someone i no has been able to mix petrol and jet feul together and his bike goes like a rocket so will it work the same with nitro fuel?

ok first thing im gunna say is i dont advise it an im tellin you not to. jsut so i dont get in trouble.

but from wot i understand about car engines the deseil engine closer resembles a nitro engine. wit the way that the fuel is ignited,

but dont do it!!! cos i dont think it will work

I know a lad who years ago ran a 1.3nova on jet fuel. Went like a veyron for a few minutes then blew up...

A petrol car will not run on nitro because nitro is not petrol.

A diesel car will not run on nitro because nitro is not diesel.

Ever think a nitro sounds like a 2 stroke motorbike or moped? They sound the same for a reason...

diesel car WILL run on petrol, for a while, then it will die as heat builds up and the petrol evaporates before its injected. thats if it runs long enough before knackering the fuel system
bloody dear way to run a car at £25 a gallon

id not advise it as there aint enough fuel to run and lubricate a deisel fuel system
in a petrol it will melt the cat and wont like the oil.

So what your actually saying is a diesel will not run on petrol. Thats like saying my mtroniks speedo WILL run off 240volts then burst into flames.
