A black 05/06 made it into the All Out 16 in one of the episodes and arm jumped hard as Rich went from rest, to raising his arms up. Probably one of the worst jumps in Pinks history. Older guy, supposedly a forum member.

I still want to know how people think a non combustible gas (nitrous) alone would blow up a car like that, there had to be fuel pooled in the intake for that to even happen.

Maybe a fuel solenoid stuck open? Just grasping at straws here...

I was thinking that but something would have to open it to begin with in the staging lane.
Unless the car has a dedicated fuel system there is always pressure on the solenoid so there would have been problems before the occurance. It possibly could have been wired wrong and when the system was activated it opened the solenoid automatically rather than triggered by RPM and WOT or a button.

Nope, because it's actually N2O.

We all know what they're talking about, so until they say "I need to get at least two bottles of nawwwz", then STFU about it.

N20 is what you get high on at the dentist? N02 is why you should keep 30 grand in your checking account to replace your car. Did I get it right that time?

Might be easy to narrow down the car if it is a member on here and we know the shoot location.

It is N2O. not 0 (Zero), There are 2 parts nitrogen to 1 part oxygen.

And your last statement shows how ignorant you are on the subject.

Nope, they're both the same gas. I was just being a jerk and correcting your N20 [you typed 'zero' instead of 'o'].

Laughing gas and go fast gas are the same compound, just prepared differently. Automotive grade is industrial quality and will smurf up your lungs if you go that route. Automotive grade is nearly always mixed with Hydrogen Sulfide.

Similair to the way they add gas/other compounds to the 200 proof alcohol they make for Ethanol. I would highly suggest not ever huffing any Nitrous they put in your bottle...

EDIT: For everyone bashing nitrous, if you actually set it up correctly and use a reasonable shot relative to the mods you have and the strength of your internals, then it's just about 100% safe to run. It makes no sense to completely bash every nitrous setup when one person installs it improperly and/or uses too much.

Damn sister, picky picky... I can't tell the difference between a 0 and a O unless they're typed right next to each other.

Happened here in Atlanta and yes he is a forum member. If you watch the unedited video tape he dropped his arms twice and it was a bit different than his normal arm drop. He also approached the competing diesel truck and said something to them prior to the matchup. We guess it went something like "don't go on my arm drop"

They remind you the whole time that you are there that you are part of a dramatic TV show and that some things may go differently than expected or may be shown differently on TV after editing.

hydrogen sulfide is the rotten egg smell .the only reason it is added is so you wont inhale it .
nitros does contain oxygen but it is bound to nitrogen and is nonflamable .
when it is introduced to a hot combustion chamber it breaks down and frees the oxygen from the nitrogen.
then it will add oxygen to the fuel reaction.
if it was just pure oxygen it would burst into flames in the intake .
