but this tool says if he and i race he'll skull "u"k me. i offer up to go and he says no. cause i cheat and i'll spray him. wtf. i'm clueless as to what this guy was on. how is using nitrous cheating.


some people are wach man. ecsb with nitrous and i cheat. hmm, wonder how he'd do with that 4.6l without the superdupercharger.

why do people think nitrous is cheating? it's beyond me

Some people just need to be smacked upside the head right in mid speech!

Most if not all mustangs that are fast are force inducted! I know of a few N/A LSX motors that are bad ***!

I did get to see ONE newer style mach 1 run mid to high 12's on motor alone. That car sounded bad ***. But back to my point............most if not all real fast Mustangs have to be force inducted.

And BTW, there are alot of guys out there who think they know everything about anything!

For example:
Yesterday after work me and my boss are chatting in front of the office building and another co-worker walks up! I point to my buddies 03' cobra and tell the guy verbatim"that is a bad *** car!"

And he replies VERBATIM "that car ain't ****! You should see the mustang I'm getting". so I asked what he was getting and he say's "an 06 stage 2 roush" That's correct a stage 2!!

I told him that the new shelby cobra is barely faster than the Terminators and that that stage 2 isn't even supercharged. That is just proof that there are some stupid people who just say the stupidest ****.

Okay, rant is over now.

Probably people associate nitrous with cheating since it is alot easier to hide nitrous than any other power adder. so if you set up a race with some guy and he says he's n/a but it turns out he has a hidden kit...etc. You see sponsor's here marketing hidden n2o kits but I have never seen any hidden turbo or supercharge kits... But anyway, I don't think n2o is cheating at all and the people that think so are just fricken stupid.

I know a girl who thinks nitrous is cheating too. She tells me I cheat since I use it. I asked her why, and she said because it's not all motor... then I asked about superchargers and turbos, and she said the same thing. Maybe she hangs around the old timers too much or something, but she sure shut the **** up quick when I said that her dad is a cheater for buying a 911 Turbo. If at the time I knew her mom had one also, I'd have called her mom a cheater too!

Its great they can build fast cars but if they took thier heads out of thier asses long enough they would see that to have a fast car with nitrous requires just as much pride and planning as an NA car. Now if we're talking about a street car that pulls double duty as a toy and a mode of comfotable transportation all three options are great but nitrous is an easier, more economical, and less stressful way to go. Now before all the NA and FI guys get thier flamethrowers on, the reason IMO nitrous is a less stressful way to go is because your not dealing with high CR, crazy lift, boost, or on the edge tuning all the time when you have a car with nitrous. Hit the button and its a different story but if I want to go for a cruise the motor doesnt have all those factors at play. So I can run a more mild combo and save the serious beatings for the bottle. Just my .02

people are just plain retarded especially these guys with the turbos and superchargers that are giving you crap, I mean do these people know anything about cars? hmm lets take a look.....what do superchargers and turbos do? essentially they just add/force as much air(oxygen=o2) through the motor as fast as possible....now lets look at nitrous N20, 2 parts nitrogen, one part oxygen, holy crap when you spray your also just adding oxygen haha wow they do the same thing......

Most people think that nitrous is cheating is for the simple fact that they have had there money took by someone with nitrous. They get punked by one guy and loss some money, so now everyone that has nitrous is a cheater.

Tell him to race u with out his power adder and see what he says. tell him to take the belt off the supercharger, that always gets them pissed off, he will tell u how his car is tuned for the superchager. If your ride is like mine its tuned for the nitrous, and when I go run someone it tuned just for the nitrous. Why cant he just run u with the nitrous, he has a power adder.

I get the same "cheating" response from alot of racers over here. Doesn't bother me at all. I can beat 99% of the street cars over here on motor. Alot of people are just haters because they don't have the sack to spray.

It's cheap horsepower and people who pay 8-10K for the same power usually end up with less and can't stand it because they are slower.

I heard a guy say that once about nitrous, this was before I had it (well, actually I don't yet, its sitting in a pile here next to my computer!) but planned on adding it down the road.Tried to ask him why he thought it was cheating, but a supercharger/turbocharger aren't. I got all snarky engineer on his ***.
Him - "Because you're adding something to the engine to make it run faster. Why not just run alcohol"
Me - "Well what does a blower or turbo add to the engine"
H - "They force more air into the engine. More air means you can burn more fuel and make more power"
M - "(playing along) Ok, well what does nitrous add to an engine?"
H - "It adds a gas into the cylinder that gives more power than gasoline"
M - Goes in depth and explains the basic concept of oxidizer chemicals, and how they add more oxygen to a reaction, not more of the ignition source, yadda yadda. "So how's that any different than adding more air to the engine like a blower/turbo does?"
H - "Well its still cheatin!"
M - "I'm going to go walk over there"
