Is using nitrous cheating?
Some motor builders refer to nitrous as "cheater juice". I know that there are countless who claim that using it in a race is "unfair", and that relying on it is "pitiful".
What are you thoughts/arguments about the use of nitrous?

i don't think it's cheating, if you aren't fast enough to keep up with someone who is spraying, then you need to hop on board with nitrous. isn't a turbo cheating? or is a sleeper a cheater?

It's not cheating if you make it apparent. I have "Nitrous Injected" on my fender. Theres no questions.
if you try and hide it yes.

Grudge racing, whether on the street or on the track is "run what you brung", so no. If you're racing in a class that disallows power-adders, then yes.
