    Re: Nitrous

    10 years ago, I would have said the "Camaro with 3 nitrous bottles in the trunk and a fake Pro-Stock hood scoop crowd." I wasn't intending it as a slam against foreign cars as much as I meant it as a slam against people who think nitrous is nothing but horsepower in a bottle, "apply as needed," with no thought to engine building at all. Those are the same people who actually brag about only getting 3 passes down the dragstrip before they have to build a new engine, as if thats a sign of the fantastic power they get.

    I'm deeply involved in the car hobby, so I see who the most common abusers are first-hand, and today it is indeed the "blue headlight and white turn-signal" crowd, aka the "fast and furious" crowd.

    Just for clarification
