Too much boost, too much nitro, too much timing, a combination of the three . . take your pick.

That's why I built the alky motor. It runs cool as a cucumber and it'll go nines on nuts. Of course, I can't drive it on the street anymore. But, I'm at the track almost every weekend . . . and the car was almost always down for repairs last year, anyway.
