cam t/a vs 100 shot vette well this happened awhile back but i thought id share it anyway. so i ran a 6 speed c5 it had a catback and 100 shot said his bottle was almost empty my mods in sig. all runs from a 20 roll. 1st run we line up honk it off i dead hooked and pulled a half a car slammed 2nd so hard i thought my 10 bolt was going to be spitting its guts, we stay equal though 2nd go to hit 3rd and i missed 
he passes me but i regain fast get it in 3rd and stop his pull and he shut down at 1xx with him a half a car up. i was stoked i figured id get my *** handed to me. we ran 2 more times from a 20 roll each time perfect shifts to about 110 and i had him by a half a car to a car with me pulling more up to. my car started feeling slow to me i thought something mite be up but i guess not, all and all guy was cool and it was good races

I think that sounds just about right... just because the vette had a 100 shot doesnt mean that it put 100 to the ground it really depends on the kit that he has..and being stock cept for exhaust even with a full bottle you are most likley putting down more rwhp then he is.. sure he does have a tq over you off the hit but down low like that is going to be useless.. he will spin... good kill!! this all assuming that its a ls1 vette i forgot if you mentioned it in the story..

I'm not certain if it's true, but I have heard that not all nitrous kits are as true about their ratings as others. NOS comes to mind...

No they are not all rated the same... and a 100 shot doesnt always mean 100 to the wheels... think about it this way.. a universal kit says it has a 100 shot.. so does that take into a count every different vehicles drivetrain loss? so they will all make 95-105 rwhp? Even more to think about it when your talking a auto vs. a manual...
