That's the only thing that bugs me about N20 is somebody using it to gain a cheap easy second.
If you run 11s with a supercharger, you have an 11 second car, because the power is always there. No refills, no buttons to push.

I hear what you are saying and I like the fact that FI is "always there" as opposed to N2O. BUT, I think N2O bugs people that don't have it.
(I will also agree with you partly in that I think people should be SPECIFYING if the time they are quoting on their car is NA or spraying. A car that runs the same timeslip NA will get a little more respect from me than a car that runs that on the juice, but you still have to respect the timeslip regardless)
Sorry to hog this thread. I found it interesting.
