To say that using NOS isn't racing is ignorant. What is the difference between someone spending the 600 bucks for NOS to run a solid 14 sec 1320, or someone who spends 2500 without NOS to do the same? I will tell you the difference, the guy squeezing just made that other guy look like a jackass. Why? Because, running the 1/4 is all about who makes it to the line first.......plain and simple. Same with street racing (which I do not support in any way, shape, or form). When you kick that guys ass, it doesn't matter how you did it.

Now, would I be mad if I were at the track and someone in a civic DX with the bottle blew my doors off............hell no! For god's sake he had a bottle. If I had one, the roles would have been reversed, and that guy would know it too. So by the same token, would you get mad when someone in a civic DX with forced induction beat you. You shouldn't......and for the same reason. Does everyone here see what I am getting at? Racing is racing, and you need to decide when to compare apples and oranges and when not to.

BTW, I personally am not a fan of NOS, just so you guys don't think this is coming from a squeezer.
