wether it is cheating or not (imo it is) the fact that N20 was used to get that time doesnt impress me much, if the time would have been using honest (IMO) methods then my hat would be off

one car accelerates faster than the other so true representation or not one is faster as for achievement have you got a non nitroused four cylinder normally asperated car that does a 1/4 in a little over 12 secs if no the i achieved you did`nt
But thats a manufactured engineered part causing forced induction thus improving your performance....not turning on a tap to a short burst then off again < Thats how I see it! ok ok its not cheating in the sense of the word, your times are impressive just not as impressive with the gas
I'll go back crawl under my rock now

i think a 13.3 without gas is f**king good time. But even better with gas .
I take it you can beat a 13.3
