The reason nitrogen is used in the aircraft and racing industry is because it is the cheapest source of DRY air.
"Dry" air, or the lack of water vapor, is the key in reducing undesirable pressure fluctuation. You bet nitrogen is affected by atmopheric pressure and temperature changes just as much as "regular air".

Then again, I am the weakest link in mysetup. 
but if you are really that gullible.. i have some magic valve stem caps that i will sell to u for 49.99$each. they are specially machine balanced from adamantium metals and will allow your tires to rotate at extraordinary centripetal forces from the center of the hub.

I will guess that that his public warning was done so in the future, you can't say "I was never warned thing". 
Anyway, one of the guys you are "descrediting", I've actually met. He's a very nice and LOGICAL dude. Also someone that's getting his masters in chemical engineering? Yeah, he's real dumb.
I'd note that he's a moderator, with access to a forum you do not have access to. And logical thought would be he would be privy to information you do not. Therefore, if he says something regarding your precarious situation here, it's more than likely correct. I'd also note the logic of arguing with the guy holding the microphone but.................
Your suppose to do this privately anyways.

You might wanna try a new tactic while you still can...

Thanks again for all your replys.Sorry people are are fighting with each other over something like this.
After a week of having the nitrogen in the tires my assesment is still the same.
The only scientific evedince I can provide is what "I feel in the car". I apologize that my statements have swayed from "shockingly different" to "rides a liitle nicer".I'll blame Canadian beer on that.
But I'm totally sober and it rides nicer,yes better.It kind of pisses me off to that I can't provide the scientific numarical data that so many are wanting.
But there is a difference.I don't give a hoot what the military uses it for.I have emailed Earnhardt Racing to inquire if they saw differnt lap times(or any noticable difference) with air vs nitrogen using the same setup. I well post there reply if they bother to respond.
