I believe that unit combines sodium nitrate with potassium chloride to produce potassium nitrate, which it injects into the exhaust.

Result: smoke screen, plus some really loud pops.

The low-res image isn't doing me any favors, but my first impressions is that it will add adjustment to something currently not adjustable.

Hmmm, I didn't consider that it could be an oscillation overthruster. Lance does drive a bit like that...

You opened the flood gates for these ridiculous - but extremely humorous - responses U. But I get it...and KNOW what it is. It's a medieval torture device that you plan to use - or threaten to use - on your nieces fiancé to get him to call the wedding off so that you can join us for the upcoming (in three short weeks from today) 2017 Jaguar Lobster Run. Clever thinking!

P.S. That video title says Buckaroo had the flux capacitor. Pernicious nonsense.

I had forgotten that Emilio Lizardo was a participant on these boards. You added an extra Z to throw us off...

No, but my dextrae manus phalageal (III) greeting will be more explicit. Full impact of its expression was somewhat blunted by a softball on Tuesday.

I've run Hella Supertones in the past to add gravitas to commentary on other driver's skill and attentiveness.

So Lance, you have begun your transformation to become the 6 million dollar man?
Just another 100 or so bits and pieces to go!
