Exactly.
IMO for a street car I prefer nitrous or Turbos. Several different tiers of people you can race.
My blue V for example. 700rw on boost, 900+ on spray. Really fun car against the local Vettes that I ran. That was stock motor junk

The difference is your V wasnt a slouch off bottle.. it was FAST on bottle and a LOT faster on spray.

My V on boost was a little faster then a nice H/C/I Vette. Big weight difference means I have to make way more power

I would love to have a V as a daily. They are really nice and yes they can be really fast too.

Nitrous makes a daily fun imo. You can turn it off and your car drives and acts normal, most people just don't want the hassle and don't want to spend the money on a nice nitrous kit. Which is in no way cheap

My nitrous kit was almost 1k dollars maybe a little more. But it looks great and well hidden.

No doubt.

Now, boost+juice in a street car = bad mofo! (Like Will's V!)

I've actually thought about that once I build a motor. Since I'm not running an intercooler it would help keep the IATs down. Just a little 50 or 75 shot would help a lot when running.
Now I know Will runs more spray then that but I'm a sissy and don't want parts flying out of the car.

Shit. 75 shot is a good plan imo. My blue car had 100 pills in it forever!
