Default nitrous for road course track

For the one of you that are using nitrous on road course but not only on 1/4 miles.
how often you can give a shot?
how long are the shot?
when can of kit are you using dry or wet?
Do you have like a push button on the steering wheel?

I already did some search but did not find an answer to those questions.

my set up will be Dart pro head 230cc with 64cc combustion chamber 2.08 and 1.6 valve double spring. rev lim at 7000
cam 238/242 112LSA and .605 and .610 lift
headers and vararam

I was on the track at Spring Mtn, NV a couple weeks ago. There were two small straights on the track. I did a quick shot on the longest one but it just wasn't enough length to make much of a difference. Hardly worth wasting it over. Now, you want to talk about the 400 mi ride home with a bunch of amp'd up corvette owners.. that's a different story
