Nitromethane is a single compound. It is CH3NO2. It's a noxious liquid with a low boiling point. That's why the mechanics wear breathing protection, not because there's any nitric acid in it. If you were to combine nitric acid and propane, first of all they'd probably not be miscible, and second of all you'd get the power of propane (about that of gasoline), with the corrosiveness of nitric acid.
