Message	[ http://www.photodump.org/stored/dsmnosfire.wmv ] A local shop car with their 9 sec dsm in Norwalk, Ohio. pictures here: [ http://public.fotki.com/jefferino/showdown_dsm_fire/ ] Word is nitrous back fire and blew the fuel rail/line? You can hear nitrous backfire before the fire. Very sad indeed since they put a lot of effort into this car and that's the first drag event for the car. I have also seen a few nitrous accidents at the track. Blowing up the the manifold and a piece of it landed on a track marshall and injured him. Nitrous is a good/cheap way to go fast, but no matter how safe you think your setup is, one day it'll bite back :( I have seriously consider to get a direct port kit for my car but I just can't get the nitrous explosion image out of my mind lol. Well, I'll just go all boost :) 1990 Nissan 300ZXTT Twin Greddy TD06L2-20G 745rwhp 593rwtq no tuning (26psi no nitrous) 7.29@108mph 1/8 mile 10.9@139mph 1/4 mile (1.75 60ft) Waiting for stronger wastegates spring
