              OWNED! He ran like a b*tch!

              Me, I woulda gotten out... ran for fire extinguisher... and put it out... I've done it before on the bird :(

              Most likely... fuel line/ rail must have been damaged/ ruptured as the nitrous backfire occured... that caused all the excessive fire/ damage.

                  The bad part is that his insurance company probably won't cover it. :eek:

                    Nope, once you drive on a race track and RACE..... you sign a sheet of paper... that track is not liable.... and with your insurance company there is no more car insurance while racing.

                    Hell, even a factory warranty can be voided from racing/ modifications.

                      This car was not even his Vette!!! [img]graemlins/slap.gif[/img]

                      Not sure what happened, but he messed up his F-Body at the same track a while ago...

                          ???..you forget the very FIRST BASIC rule of nitrous..its never definite..you can take every safety precaution in the world and it can still explode..doesnt matter who you are..its like the AIDS you got from your father humping you..it doesnt discriminate..owned..besides..if i lit my car on fire id just buy another one..and i thought my car was broken anyway..ANYWAYS..that sucks..i ran several 100 and 125 wet shots today..had a LOT of fun..but no trouble

                            You ran today?

                            I thought it rained out?

                            Play nice all.

                              yeah the track rained out..even though the freakin sun was shining..the staging lanes and track were just lakes though..it woulda been crappy anyways..but the street just outside the track is straight and flat for a good mile or so..so a few of us made a few pulls out there (we sometimes do if the track is closed)..i took out a 99+ Mustang GT easy on a 100 shot..not sure if he had any mods though..i can definitely feel the extra tq from the wet setup..its pretty sweet
