Vht or Bleach?

There were some local import guys that were telling me they use bleach instead of VHT when they street race. Has anybody ever heard of this before?

I found this video on, go to 1:00...

It just seems to me that it would be really bad for the tires and wouldnt get any grip. I guess if it makes them softer though???

Bleach only serves to create more smoke. Does nothing for traction.

That honda got handled!

I hate the stereotypical East Coast jumpfest they call a race, esp. when they are holding up the traffic on the road.

I love how the Honda showed up on a trailer, rolled out early on the two-step, jumped the gun a little early, and still got walked... lol.
I wouldn't say that's a case for the usefulness of bleach.

Should of been game over the first time the evo jumped. Then the honda jumps like 3 times in a row. Great street racers lol. It wasnt even like a close jump on any of the starts.

If you watch it over again, the flagger did the whole arms up and drop thing, and then the evo went for the first run. I think the Honda just wasn't ready on the first run.

Not the best example for how to line up and run a race. What kind of power were the 2 cars racing making ? Love the fact that he couldn't run a front bumper due to his FMIC being so big. And still lost.

seen this on facebook and ripped the kid apart who posted it. evo drove there looks clean and stock. honda looks to be a full blown race car, exhaust out of the hood, no front bumper,trailered,etc. last race the civic jumps and the evo still won. come on that civic is junk. i has once in the honda scene and yea they can be kinda quick with the right mods but at a certain power limit they all break. i love getting called out by hondas i havent lost yet and most of the time they break on the line. btw that was a bone stock LT1 i was beating them with
