Part 2 Just after 4:00. It makes me laugh cause I can beat a Japanese GT-R in a cross country race. Limited to 112 MPH that must suck and yet people have wrecked it.

If your tires go low where do you fill them up at?

You can get your tires filled with nitrogen in town here. They may even excessively over charge you for it. The air you breathe is something like 78% nitrogen as it is anyway.

It seems that Clarkson wasn't too impressed with the GT-R. I wonder if his tune will change when he gets to drive one back at the Top Gear track.

They wreck them cause they cant drive and do stupid things. I have nitrogen in my tires and its more of a pain in the ass than anything. Supposed to help with gas milage. Id hate to see what my car gets without it if thats the case. I get horrible gas milage. My tire pressure sensor is pretty much always on. i take it to my dealer once every two weeks and they refill them for me for free.

That's funny! I guess the only reason they'd make that claim is that a tire filled with 100% nitrogen is less suseptible to air pressure fluctuations due to temperature fluctuations. But the difference between a tire filled with normal air and nitrogen would be very minimal.

And unless your wheel has 2 valve stems, bleeding out the trapped regular air when the tire is originally mounted is tough.
