Holy smoke Batman that was painful to watch
Must have been using Mongoose Nitrous....the Cobra killa.
He kicked it on at too low and rpm and didn't have a window switch, DUMBASS, it was probably his first time turning the NOS on, plus he didn't purge the lines? the shop owner should have been the driver!:nono:
If it was a dry shot he wouldn't need to purge. Mine had three fail safes. Bottle had to be on, switch in dash had to be on, and throttle had to be wide open.
That was a wet kit he had on there..
Agree w/ BrutalMetal on this one, kicked on under 2100K calls for a very poor mixture. big no no, an even if it is dry, should always purge what's in the line because it's probaly turned into a gaseous state.

Sure hate 2 B that guy ! ! !
Dang all I saw was money signs flashing before my eyes. That really sucks.
They were laughing then but I bet when the owner got home, he was crying major time, I know I would lol.
Yeah Definitely Nervous laughter from not knowing how to react to such a Crazy Explosion! That dude was crying into his pillow when he got home!:happyhapp
wow, that would suck. Seems if you put nitrous on your car, you would do research on it to know everthing about it....if not, i guess you pay for it.
Anybody watch "Pass Time" on speed channel this week? Man they had some biachin cars on...in the final run, the world record holder of the 10.5 class wrecked his 2100 hp twin turbo Stang...it was sad

Wow. . . what a bunch of tards
I'm always shocked to see videos of dynos with customers standing around a car on a dyno like that... ANYTHING can and does happen, and being anywhere near a car with an open hood and a motor spooling up to 130+ MPH as fast as it can... yikes! There are SO many things that can wrong, and as this video shows, it only takes a millisecond for it to go badly wrong.

They're lucky parts didn't go flying and take a chunk out of somebody.

pretty scary, dont think i will be going the Nitrous route haha
I'm looking for Ray Finkle...and a clean pair of shorts!(Jim Carrey from ace ventura pet detective)
probably best that it happened in a shop on the dyno than out on the street. Could've made a huge mess........ the shop owner just heard KUH....CHING!!!
