oh jason my dear boy
you really think nitrous oxide was made to make cars go faster?
Its used for a whole manner of things, common in the scientific field I used to use it to combust fluids on a icpms spectrometer - we had a 30kg tank

nitrous oxide is just very cold air with added fuel to bring the mixture right so is running a turbo car on a cold day cheating because it does not reprisent a true indication of the engines performance also the combustion engine was designed to run on air/oxygen we put the same fuel in our car that you all do the nitrogen in nos is just to make the intake charge cold as with a cold day al be it very cold.

B'cos it gives you a 10 second false impression your running 50/75/100bhp more than you actually are
Ok not cheating, lets just say its not very manly & leave it at that
[Edited on 07-03-2006 by JadeM]
but thats like saying cars with turbos and superchargers are not allowed them its an add on aswell as nos

Turbo's are manly
Turbo's & superchargers are not 10 sec bursts of power that need renewed all the time (unless you own an RX7 ) okay maybe cheating is a strong word. Its artificial conditions & not a true representation of speed or achievement....is that better?? Many people agree with both sides of this so will never agree - however why is NOS not used in motorsport?? Several NASCAR teams in the US got fined for using it to..........cheat:boggle
You could have the fastest corsa by dropping it out a plane from a great height & let gravity do its thing - would that be cheating?? :

have you not been to a drag race track does that not count as motorsport
nitrous oxide is a recognized mod all over the world except in your house
even our airforce used it
it comes fitted to a few production cars ( well limited edition )
gas last`s as long as the bottle is full like your petrol tank
and we use optimax

isn`t forcing air into an engine after cooling it down through an inter cooler not artifitcial conditions
one car accelerates faster than the other so true representation or not one is faster as for achievement have you got a non nitroused four cylinder normally asperated car that does a 1/4 in a little over 12 secs if no the i achieved you did`nt
