Freshly Squeezed: Nitro Dave’s 2000 Camaro SS “Orange Juice”

How many people can say they purchased an 8-second car over the phone, sight unseen? Well, Dave Vasser, commonly known as “Nitro Dave,” is one who did. In 2009, Vasser, owner of
Nitrous Outlet, bought a 2000 Camaro SS with a 10-point cage. It was supposed to be a “turn-key” 8-second car. Dave quickly regretted the purchase.
“When the car arrived, it had signs of kissing a guard rail on the passenger side,” Dave explains. “The converter came apart on the first pass and took out the transmission and the intake manifold had been ported so thin that I accidentally pushed my thumb through the runner.”
