haha, no put your fast and furious video away. Just kidding..

The Maxima sprays nitrous right out of the hole and for the whole way down the track, thats how it went 12.3 in that video. As soon as the tires move, the nitrous is spraying.

The squeeling you heard were the next pair doing their burn outs while we were finishing up. As soon as your part way down the track the next guy is warming up the tires, as you cross the line they are lining up and when you pull to the return road, they leave the line, it's pretty quick how they pump the cars through. They have to tho cause it's usually busy... The video camera's microphone picks up the noise cause it's part way down the track in the stands, thats all.

Yeah were still tinkering with those projects here and there. I have heard of the dragon and see video but never driven it. I have heard that it's a killer drive tho, wish I could make it out that way one day with the box.
