Default "Bottles are for babies....."

I've seen people put this in their signatures around this site...I only bring it up because i'm on the verge of getting my first dry kit and get hesitant because of the heat people get at times (not everybody just occassionaly). How do you guys combat things like that...any shame in not being all motor?

Hmm, how do I respond to that? Well I usually just either land on them or drag their *** down the 1/4 mile

I guess if I was being nice I could offer to run them and I'll shut my motor at the 1/8 mile and coast out the back. That will net me a low 10 second pass and have them crying about "yeah, well you got nitrous". Yeah, well you just got your *** busted

I guess that shows I don't have any shame!

If you are worrying about what other people are saying, you might want to reconsider what you worry about.

different strokes for different folks... price plays a big part too...its cheaper iniatially for people to get into nitrous than turbos and superchargers... some people just prefer one over the other... i only plan using nitrous until i can afford to go with a supercharger...then ill do that until i can afford a turbo...then i might go N/A...

the only reason someone would put that in thier sig...to put down a mod...is either because they are terrified of it...or have been assraped by somone spraying. Usually its a combo of the 2. They got assraped...but are too chickenshit to man up and learn how to use nitrous effectively and arent willing to step out of thier "comfort zone". Sissies

like stated....we are shameless users. Its a drug. People catch heat for snorting coke but they still do it and they run a hell of a lot faster than the cops. Also like stated, if you need the nitrous, chances are they are using some sort of FI. If so just tell them to cut thier blower belt. See how well that one works, i say its all fair as long as they know. So its no surprise when you walk them.

Yeah it wouldn't bother me too much beating on someone while spraying....whoever gets to the 1/4 mile first. I'm getting my kit tomorrow and am definitely excited just wanted to hear some thoughts about the criticisim.

Bottles are for babies...

babies are total chick magnets, so with some basic math, you can deduct that
nitrous = chick magnet.

The reason people complain about nitrous because 90% of the time it's cause they get tired of seeing the tailights and hazards of the N20 Car.
