For the record I'm not trying to start $hit. I just don't think it's cool to say stuff that's not true. It really doesn't matter since the race is well over a year old. But really, I'm not trying to start anything just stating the truth.
well im not saying i dont believe you, but why would the owner of the car tell everyone he was spraying a 200? changing some jets doesnt take but a few minutes, a stock-ish C6 Z06 makes about 440rwhp/410lbft, add Long Tubes and a 200 shot and the car is making the same power as TRMIN8R's car was at the time of that video.

I don't know why he would as he never told me or anyone else that was there at the time/night of the race that he was spraying 200. I'm pretty sure it was a 150 but I guess there's only one person that knows for sure.

And a C6 Z06 with the mods he had and a 200 shot on top of that would probably be around 680+ hp and 700+ tq. With at least 700lbs less, I would think that's overkill against term.

Just before we raced the owner told me he was running a 100 shot. Then after the race he said 150 shot. Then about 2 weeks later he said 200 shot. Who knows what was really in it. If the motor blew during the 2nd run it happened at the very end, when I was already 2 cars up on him.

FWIW, the first run my nitrous shut off about a second after I hit the gas.

Okay cool, I hadn't heard that before but if that's what he told you then cool. But I'm really not interested in getting into the rest of this with you because 1. the race happened well over a year ago and 2. neither one of the cars were mine.
