Track Regulations for nitrous use?

What safety equipment or anything is needed to use nitrous at the track?

Only thing I know of is having a blow-down tube if the bottle is inside.

Anybody have some insight?

Yes, you need a blown down (out) tube if the bottle is mounted in the passenger area (cab) you also need a SNELL (2005?) helmet and a Fire Jacket.

It's a NHRA rule, it's up to the track whether or not they will enforce it.
