I met a guy today with a 90 Chevy Beretta, 2door, 5speed, not sure the displacement but it was a V-6, stock skinny azz tires and the whole car looked like chit. No mods to it except for a 100 shot of Nitrous. He ran at the strip last night and claimed to run 11's on the bottle, I say no way in hell. I know my SVT will whoop his azz in a drag N/A but I know a 100shot would not put my SVT into the 12's, let alone into the 11's. He even showed me his time slip but I still can't believe it. He didn't make a N/A pass last night but told me his car would probably run a 15. I don't know much about nitrous but he picked up 4 seconds on a 100 shot? Tell me this is B.S.!

Beretta. LMAO. That's the funniest thing I've heard in a long time. Then again what was more amusing was that GM originally wanted to name it Baretta, but the gun manufacturer saw the car and sued claiming that it would damage their reputation.

I've seen a 90 beretta with 130hp run a 16.6 in the 1/4th...I've also seen SVT's with bad drivers go that slow.

Uh, last I checked (about 10 seconds ago), the gun manufacturer is also spelled Beretta? Did I miss something in your point?
