Had a BAD Nitrous Backfire last night at the track!!!

[Eric4Nitrous]

I can't believe it...first time it's ever happened to my car. I don't know what really happened...it happened so fast that it caught me off guard. I just had got done doing my burnout and i purge the nitrous as usual. Well I start to stage the car and then when the lights come down I Launched it off the transbrake and it took off fine then about at the 60 ft mark I hear a big KaBoommmmm!! And i saw alot of flames and stuff. The impact of it threw me back in my seat..so i let off the throttle and hit the kill switch for the motor. When I did that a second explosion nearly about knocked me out...this time it blew the hood completely off the car. So i knew that if i didn't get out of it soon it could hit some raw fuel and blow me to smitherines. So I unhooked my harnesses and everything opened the door and rolled out of it and the track crew came over and put it out. But it burned the front end of the car up pretty bad..have to get a new one..blew my intake just about completely off..and a couple other things. I am so PISSED right now...I called Billy this morning and he said to send the motor back up there. He suggested that I try a sheetmetal intake with two carbs plus the Fogger plates like he's running this year. He said it would be cheaper so That's what i'm gonna do. I can't believe this happened!!!!
