Default 370Z Handle NOS?

Hey guys,

So my buddy stopped by Harrys after work and picked up some NOS for his 370Z, 2 of the big ones. He used it in a drag race, and topped out just over 140mph. How ever it looks like he has blown the welds on the intake, so now me and the mad scientist got to rip apart the block, and replace those piston rings he fried.

And he still owes me a 10 second car, is this common on these cars?

Thanks

Just make sure he not granny shifting and that he's double-clutching like he should.

Wait, it's a drag race with no downshifts... Why should he double-clutching again?

Whether the 370Z can handle NOS is irrelevant. How can you possibly drag race with only 6 gears?
