That's amazing! Not to take away from LMR, but I want to see what VR will run with their car as well.

[mental note] Don't race lime green mustang with 8urz06 plate.

Nice runs. One of my friends went last night as well and said some dude in a CTSV rear ended a couple of cars in the pit lane. Anyone else see that?

This was not on nitrous right? Jerends car with less bolt ons and a stick ran 138...... I can't see nitrous plus this car is a auto and only trapped 140.

So was nitrous used on this pass?

Trapped 142... Impressive in any car that can be daily driven. Could certainly had been the difference of nitrous as we don't know whether they were spraying a conservative 75 shot, or 150 shot. Spraying out of the hole, or at half track? Nitrous bottle pressure?

Regardless, it's an amazing pass with nitrous or not.

We don't know if nitrous was used. While I agree that Jeremy's run was more impressive being a bolt ons only car, this car was on street tires, not drag radials and skinnies.

Y'all should ask questions in this thread, appears to have spun and I'm sure it was pretty warm with high humidity down in Houston last night...pretty safe to say it'll go faster

It appears to have a bigger stall at least.
