Default NOS LS goes 4.88 on 275s

Not sure if its been posted on tech yet but ...
Justin Smith went 4.89 & 4.88 both @ 145mph on a 275 radial at SGMP.
This is in X275 legal trim supposedly.
1.18 60ft on the 89 run & a 1.16 on the 88 pass.
This makes him the fastest nitrous car in the class.
AND he's the #1 qualifier followed by a crazy back halved turbo car.
BADASS! Way to go Justin!

Was fortunate enough to get to watch this beautiful LS powered car smoke Prochargers and Turbos all day long on Sunday. Car left so well mannered that it looked slow out the hole, however a 1.16 60ft is not slow by any means Very well put together combo!

I just got back from a 16 hr drive from South Georgia to watch these races. I had a friend that was pitted close to this car, and I stoped down and checked it our frequently. Its a very clean car, with no detail missed. Here are a few videos I got of the car. Sorry for the quality, they were filmed on my phone. First is the 4.89 qualifing pass, and the next 2 are the final rounds. First VS Bob Kurgan, and the other VS a black turbo mustang.
