Default Watch the vid and make the call

Ok so this is a race that was set up over a year and 1/2 ago:


My setup at the time:
Greddy Twins
HKS DLI II
5.5 psi
366HP



The C5 vette:

Allegedly 500+hp
Headwork
Cams
Intake
Exhaust


Now... Info leaked that this car was running 150shot NOS and the driver swears up and down he didn't.

Watch the HUGE cloud of black smoke and you make the call.

Street racing is one thing, but doing it when the car is less then half a mile away from you?

Street Racing = especially when Speed World drag strip is right there in Orlando. Unfortunately highway racing is very big in Orlando...I've often wondered what I would do if I had my family in my car and a couple a**holes went by me street racing. If you want to risk your own life thats fine, but not someone elses....I thought maybe examples like Hogan and LakelandKev would discourage this foolishness..Life is precious,especially when you have little ones at home(hint-hint)

I agree. Street racing is just dumb. Now to answer your question, the black smoke could be a number of things, not just nitrous.

I don't think that is nitrous. When I had my Z06 it puked out black smoke anytime I floored it. Besides, I thought when a car sprayed that the exhaust color was white.

You should know the rules. There is absolutely no street racing material allowed on our forums. Your next violation will result in an immediate temporary ban from the forums. Please consider this your first and only warning.

BTW, just because he had black sooty exhaust fumes coming out, it doesn't mean he had nitrous. If he did in fact have nitrous and was spraying a 150 shot, you'd hear the difference from his regular WOT sound. In addition, he would've pulled on you pretty hard from the get go or lose traction.
