Another race car at the shootout last year blew up due to nitrous as well and caught fire. However the owner had installed an automatic fire suppressant system that basically put the fire out before it could spread like that.
Lesson learned. If you are going to have that much money invested in a race car, invest the extra cash to make sure it doesn't burn to the ground on the track.
