Default question for anyone whos used nitrous at the track

im in the middle of putting my kit together and was told by a coworker that they wont let me run my car at the track if the bottle isnt mounted to the bottom of the car, meaning the brackets bolted to the steel underneath all our crap by our spare tire. i was planning on hiding the bottle in a fake speakerbox and mounting that on the "carpeted floorboard" that covers the spare tire. so my question is, has anyone been denied at the track for having a bottle mounted to the spare tire cover? his reasoning is that it wouldnt be secure in the case of an accident.

not sure on that rule

sounds like it could make sense
take your spare out and bolt it there under the carpet

I know for a fact you need to purchase a fire jacket to run at the track now. I got mine from summit racing for $50
