You almost had me? You never had me - you never had your car... Granny shiftin' not double clutchin' like you should. You're lucky that hundred shot of NOS didn't blow the welds on the intake! You almost had me?

Now, me and the mad scientist got to rip apart the block... and replace the piston rings you fried.

Ask any racer. Any real racer. It don't matter if you win by an inch or a mile. Winning's winning.

Um he'll no that's not what happened. I watched a video where they showed how it's all nitrous fed, and there are weights in the trunk stacked up on a shaft. It was the bonus features of the DVD. Lol go check it out for yourself

LOL, The car had a push up in the center to give the wheelie effect... You can see it in the begining of the wheelie in the video.
