"what kind of nos kit do you have"
"are you using your nos tonight"
"did you fill your nos'
Just typing that pisses me off and makes my head hurt. I can't stand people that say that!

I have had lagit questions of how does it feel when you hit the button with my Probe but some have the impression that it is like they show in Fast the the Furious. Snaping your neck and shooting like a rocket.

The best feeling I have ever had was running my 100 shot off the line last time at the track. Felt quite good and much faster than without! Only real time I have ever felt a big boost from the juice.

SRT4 guy: " How much hp does your car make?"
Me: "400 to the wheels."
SRT4 guy: " Is that with the nitrous"

I just laughed, some people just don't get it. He also asked me how many cams I had too!

Cobra guy to a friend (Camaro SS): If you want to race me you can't use your Nitrous.

Friend: Ok, in that case, take the belt off your supercharger and we'll go.

If you heard the car you would not ask me if that was on nitrous. A LG G5x3 with a 112 LSA alone will tell you enough to know that it was on motor.

"your cheating" (even though i told them i had nitrous before the race)
"fake horsepower"
"that win doesn't count because you were spraying"

you gotta love this famous line...
"WOW! nitrous oxide boosters! this thing must hall major ***!"
by Chris Farley (Black Sheep)

when people tell me i can't spray during a race, i say "ok...but you can't use your turbo/supercharger"

i have gotten so tired of listening to people bitching about it, i am buying a d-1sc procharger and a 6.0 next month. now i can listen to my s/c whine instead of the person i race. lol

They were like "Are you crazy? you shouldnt spray that big of a shot" and "your gonna blow it up" they all made the most stupid faces as they ran away from my car on the dyno thinking it was gonna blow up like paul walkers eclipse "NAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWSS!?" LMAO!

I don't want to pic everything apart but aparently you had to be there. Sounds like the kid was just making conversation and trying to lear about your car. Again it is ignorant but 4 cylender guys are used to having 4 cams, hell Mustangs have 2 in many cases.

I am sure the kid you were talking to had plenty of missinformation but if he was coming at you inteligently I would give him some credit because he is trying to learn about something other then his SRT4. This is when you put him in your seat teach him about real power and convert him to the cubic inch side of things.
