Nitrous.....cheating?!? Options

[94celicaguy]

ok, here is something that bothers me and i wanted to know what other people thought about it. i have nitrous, and when i race people they tell me not to spray, or they wont race because i have it. i have no idea why in the hell people act like that. is nitrous not just like any other performance modification. you want your car to be fast, so if you have the money you can get nitrous oxide. thats like me racing a car with a header, and telling him i didnt want to race him cause he had a header. thats just ignorant if you ask me. it helps performance and i dont believe people should be like that. tell me what you think.

First off, I know it's easier to use "NOS" but that is just the name of a damned company that sells systems that use the fuel called Nitrous Oxide....grrr I hate people that do that and then defend it saying that NOS is what it's called, because it's not.

And then you go and contradict yourself. Before FNF, how many people called nitrous NOS? Not too many, but ever since that famous blowup scene witht hat Eclipse where they yell "NOS!" everyone uses it as that...so basically calling nitrous oxide NOS is being FNF-like which contradicts your saying "NOS is just for people who wanna be FNF" DUDE...if you could at all follow what I just said then you'll understand that you should go crawl in a dark hole and pee yourself....lol. Don't be knocking people that use nitrous and saying they're fast and furious wannabes when you're going around calling nitrous oxide NOS! Grrr....anyways....ranting is over with now. (BTW: This ain't to knock those of you who say NOS just for short because it's easier....like FallenHero and someitmes like I do...it's only to those people that defend that nitrous oxide is really called NOS....I get totally flabbergasted when people say that and defend it...grrrr)

Anyways. I agree with RedSunCelica. If you feel like you wanna beat these little kids with only an Intake and nitrous then go ahead and do it. Don't sit here and complain that it's not fair. Show them that it takes me than some nitrous to really race. Take some igotta5sfeturbo's advice to heart. Maybe you'll spend a hell of a lot more, but you aren't going to have a chance of messing up your engine and while those kids with only nitrous are filling up their nitrous tanks to get their horsepower, you already got your HP right under the hood of your car....readily available whenever you need it.

It's YOUR car....do what YOU want to do with YOUR car and don't complain about what others do to theirs. Street racing is illegal in the first place so saying they aren't following the (unwritten) rules of no nitrous is kind of contradicting yourself am I right? "Oh, you're not following the rules in an already illegal action"....you're already breaking the street racing law....so who gives a damn if you're breaking another one eh?

I don't know if any of that made sense. I just get really heated when people say stuff that's ignorant.

Lata all...BTW....igotta- You can also do that to yuor 5s...although it won't be as strong as the 3s because the 3s is made to handle a turbo...you cna still replace engine parts with performance ones on the 5s. :-)
