Default Fuel System

My mind wonders... a lot. So this came across it last night. Has anyone thought about or tried to run a wet system with a secondary fuel system that is using race gas(100 plus octane).
Idea of having a separate fuel cell (3 gal?) and fuel pump that is turned on when the nitrous is activated. You could even include a pressure switch when the fuel pressure falls below x amount the nitrous is turned off.

Just random thoughts. What you think?

yeah there is alot of v8 guys doing this. allows them to run full timing in most cases. lower fuel costs. NX makes a fuel cell for this very application.

Yea ive seen the cell NX makes. I guess no one has tried this around here, or had personal experience with a setup like this.

no reason it cant be done

unless you have a built motor, race gas levels of spray will break your rods with a quickness. you can already bend them on pump gas with a 100shot. more octane isnt going to prevent that.

How do you figure that? People are using stock rods on 100+.
Also with race gas it would be safe due to less chance of detonation.
