Krambo Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 (edited) Here is a local guy to me that just installed a nice 150 wet shot on his bolt-on modified C6 Vette. His big mistake was spraying at 1,000 RPMs, arming the nitrous for the "attempted" burnouts and just plain inexperience with the juice. Some of you guys know what it is like on Friday Night street legal at Island Dragway. Lots of amatures, some with more money than brains. Very entertaining,...at least he got a standing ovation! Enjoy the video! Edited June 10, 2008 by Krambo spelling (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterp Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 Yeah I'm sure that won't be the last nitrous car to send chunks of intake through the hood. Mr. P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mean05 Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 i use the 125 shot to help get the water off my tires...but then again i stall it to 2500 then do the burnout...i would rather drive around the water box but at some of the tracks you cant do that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SS_bnoon_SS Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 Anyone know which insurance lot it's going to be at? I would love to find a C6 in need of a 408 swap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was inevitable. The funny thing is that a year or so prior, another white C6 completely melted to the ground at the same track. Was it the same guy?

Zath Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 (edited) You can just say its the same guy so it makes it 200 times funnier. And thats if funnier was a word of course. Edited June 10, 2008 by ScottSS04 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fireman31 Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 (edited) Glad I wasn't there to see that! me too! The funny thing is that a year or so prior, another white C6 completely melted to the ground at the same track. Was it the same guy? Hmmm I wonder... On a side note, Kevin do you remember the white Evo that shot a rod through his oil pan back in November at Island? ......... pop pop.......BOOM!

04CHASE Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 (edited) also rule of thumb is not to spray unless you know your tb blade is open all the way( with us its hard since we really dont control it) , unless your nitrous injection is after your tb ie: direct port or spray bars. i have sprayed at about 2800 rpm and i thought it was a bit low. i plan on hitting mine with a 125 shot this friday , with over 200 kpa on the map at the same time. should make close to 180 more lb ft of torque.
