Used nitrous kits could be found on craigslist for as little as $300
Friction is overcome by the addition of force.
But there are some basic ways to avoid excess friction:
1) Reducing friction between moving surfaces by using lubricants such as powders, oil or water.
2) By using surfaces that have less friction such as plastic or teflon where the parts come together.
3) Change the sliding friction to rolling friction, using wheels, rollers, or ball bearings.
4) Reduce the weight of the object being moved across a surface. Less weight usually means less friction for any given surface.
