Was the SRT-8 modded? I agree, the 5.0 didn't seem very quick for a squeezer...

Good vid, great sounds!

no way that boat pulled a 5.0 on juice like that unless it was a 25 shot on a stock mustang.

an srt8 can run 12s... a 5.0 is dog *** slow without some mods. esp if it has a gajillion miles if it was stock with just a bottle its not gonna break into the 12s.

Blah that mustang sucked and it didn't seem like it was spraying at all. If it had spray something was wrong cause there was really no sign of the juice hitting.

That was the rumor that he was squeezing. The owner denies it. But after the first race, he pulled over and popped his hood and was doing something with it. Its an auto 5.0, that lost to my stock 96 GT by like 3 cars like a year ago. The owner claims he is losing to LS1's by a car.... but I beat that SRT-8, so im sure me and him wont even be close hehe.

i agree, he was not squeezing. there was no sudden rush of power, or even the sound of nitrous. to me it appeared that he got beat harder the second go around... also, its just not very appealing to me that some dude went out and bought a bad *** 2005/6 car and is proud that it beat up on a car 20 years older. besides, who keeps their bottle under the hood?

Maybe he hooked up a line or something? Its not very legal to have nitrous installed. Maybe it was hidden and only turns it on when he needs it?
