I saw a news post that there was chaos in Ocean City MD last night Hopefully it didnt effect any of the teams/race site. Ive been to that race several times and it just doesnt seem like a place that would happen... What did happen????

There's the highly annoying H2O car show going on down there this weekend. That show is not sponsored by the city and causes chaos every year. I watched videos last night of people lighting fireworks off in the middle of coastal highway and doing donuts and burnouts in the intersection at the same time. That crowed of rice burner loving teens is out of control and they get crazier every year. I'm a big fan of and attend the Back to the Beach and the Endless Summer classic cars shows every year. Those shows are sponsored by the city and its becoming more and more difficult every year for the people putting on that show to get permissions and get it organized with the city due to the actions of H2O.

Was in OC Fri/Sat/Sun. H2Oi non-official event. Basically its a Fart Can gathering, probably 2-3000 cars pretending to be that stupid Fast Furious movie. Too grid-locked with Fart Cans to do anything too stupid. Annoying as hell. Didn't see any riots and was pretty much all over the island, wasn't aware of a race or any offshore stuff.

This was it all day and night, super hard to get anywhere or get any sleep:

Besides the usual fart-canning they're doing this backfire thing, not the usual pop-pop-pop but instead a real concussive bang, quite alarming at first. They must be injecting fuel directly into a reinforced exhaust and igniting it.

Or they have fried their exhaust valves

I thought they were just holding them on the rev limiters,,,,,,,,,, WTH is the point in that?

It's called anti-lag for turbo drag cars and now every turbo car thinks it is cool. It works by delaying the ignition timing very slightly to balance an inherent loss in combustion efficiency with increased pressure at the charging side of the turbo. This is achieved as a small amount of fuel/air mixture escapes through the exhaust valves and combusts in the hot exhaust manifold spooling the turbocharger creating higher useable pressure.
