the 'nitro' that we burn is nitromethane. its just that nitro is so much easier to write.

a link to some fuel sold at tower. notice how they describe it.
sorry my spell checker changed my nitromethonol to Nitromethane in the previous statement, thought it was only changing the capitalization. our fuel is a mixture of nitro and methanol, when mixed with the methanol the nitro is whats called 'sensitized' and is no longer has an explosive characteristic.
