My friend Shawn told him he was an idiot and said what do you think should be allowed in this class. He looked at us point blank and said, "anything more than a gear, slicks, and exhaust shouldn't be allowed" We had a good laugh on his behalf, and the real punchline was that the guy we were there with had a bottle in his speaker box and a dry kit hidden under the intake. He qualified in the high 13's, then (after we told him to leave soft ) yanked the front wheel and went a 12. something in the first round of eliminations. After that everyone came over and started looking his car over and found nothing. I honestly don't remember Dan saying anything about a nitrous kit on the lethal injection car because we kept laughing and joking amongst ourselves that Dan was all bent out of shape about the throttle body while half the cars in the class were really spraying. The way the lethal injection car left gave me little doubt that he was, I believe there was a red corvette there that seemed to come on really hard about 10 feet out (at least somebody did it right ), and I knew for a fact we were
