I wouldn't consider the guys in the DSM "young ricers" at all. That car was respectible, and the camera guy was funny/cool as ****. And as far as the older guy in the Vette knowing, "what modding is all about"; without that nitrous kit, he wouldn't have caught up in that race for ANOTHER two or three seconds. It took too long for him to pull them in my book as it is. Peace.

Thats Eric's Vette, he lives in Cedar Falls,Iowa - the vette now has a supercharger and n20.....runs mid 10's at a trap of 135, so he should be in the 9's if he can hookup better, very nice vette.

Well if we are gona have a stupid argument about an OLD vid ill chime in. When this vid came out the vette guy posted on corvetteforum and said he was using nitrous. In the vid you can see right after he hooks up his front end jumps when he hits the spray. He sprayed too early and had to let off...that is why he was spinning so bad off the line. I dont think it was a very big shot 100 or less from what i remember.

The owner of that car post's here occasionally.
I think he had H/C and N20 at the time of the race.(I don't beleive he was spraying the DSM)
He is now packing H/C Magnacharger and some spray.(I think the car runs or will run low 10's at 135+)

jesus this thread is old.
10-02-2004 <~~~~to be exact....
we all know it's not a ling. corvette it's explained somewhere in the thread that's it's some other fancy pants modded corvette with nitrous.
Who cares what does what when whatever is done and what-not happens.
It's fast, hurray, hoopty-damn-doo end of story.
