Hit the nitrous the other day and BOOM!!!!!
So, yesterday I am out cruising in the trans am.
I had just picked up parts for genie's elentra and I'm doing about 60 mph on rt 23. Since I have 2:73's I had it in 3rd gear and was happily listening to the loudmouth exhaust.
I notice a honda civic hatchback weaving in and out of traffic. Eventually he gets behind me and starts tail gating me.
Now, I didn't want to race.... just wanted to cruise and enjoy the exhaust and lovely weather.
We get to a traffic light and he is behind me. Liht turns green and I give it a bit of gas and move over to the center lane.
Next light..... he is next to me. Light turns green and I accelerate away slowly.
He then slows down.... gets next to me... looks at me... revvs and purges the nitrous. He then floors it.... I hear him hit the nitrous... and BOOM!!!!!!! HUGE nitrous explosion. I slow down....then look over and start laughing at him.
Ya know..... I've been on that side of the nitrous explosions..... but never been on the side of watching it..... it was damn funny!
So..... since I did not street race.... and this post is funny.... I think it will not be deleted.... no street racing on my part here

yea...I bet he feels pretty dumb merely trying to show off with the juice and ends up blowing his crap up. I only spray when I'm racing or just looking to show MYSELF a good time lol. No point in egging someone on and then spray them for no reason. That does suck though

 Rice. He had to feel real small after that one. Yesterday I was on the parkway. I was in the left lane when this honda pasted me. All I could hear was the annoying exhauxst. Everytime he hit the gas all you saw was blue smoke. Dumbass.

Funny story But Im not going to laugh, cause it(blowing up while spraying) can damn well happen to me in the future, and I don't want that to happen!

That must have been so funny. I can't even imagine the look on his face when he saw you laughing at him.

Ah, that's what I call a heart warming story. The only thing that coulda made the story better is if his car became engulfed in a fireball, and he perished in a horrible way like all ricers deserve.

I figured because it wasn't a street racing thread (I street raced XXXX) it would be safe.
It was soooooooooooooooooooooooooo funny!
