And make sure to show up early so you can let your truck cool down. Are you going to spray off the start or no?

Personally I think nos is cheating and pretty lame unless you have a full built motor. Whenever I hear someone ran something spraying I automatically rule their time out and their run loses respect from me unless they have dumped some serious dollars into the ride, but whatever to each his own. What do you run without the laughing gas?
when you pull up to some one that has a supercharger you gonna say "Hey I'll only run you if you take your belt off your supercharger!!" quit whining..nitrous is the same as any other power adder super/turbo chargers..so how is it cheeting?

nitrous is a bigger bang for the buck..back when i just a had tune, exhaust and 150 shot of nitrous i out ran supercharged and sts turbod trucks..my buddy's 4.8 ecsb with a tune dinky cam and 100 shot walked away from a single cab magncharged truck by two trucks lenths to 65mph..

oh i found out the guys problem..he drives a fast a hell, big bad dodge hemi

Nitrous allows greater fuel and air consumption which in turn creates HP
Superchargers and turbos Push more air into the engine which allows for more fuel to be ignited which create more HP

They do the same exact thing, allow the engine to combust greater amounts of Air/fuel

as Dirttackracer stated its all the same

You probably dislike it because you are scared to try it, most are!

Also, Omar you are correct, 15.1 is good for how heavy your vehicle is.
I am not upset..

Here have a kitten in a jar

dirt track racer, I never said I had a big bad fast as hell hemi. I do not have the hemi hoopla like most hemi drivers and always defend other brands on dodge forums so that is not the case but thank you for trying o make an insult in my direction.. I also don't pick races but I race when someone revs at me so I never say oh take that pulley off. I am also not afraid to run nos as tons of guys run it no problem, I just still think it's dumb. I don't understand why you got your panties in a twist over someone saying they don't like nos. Haha thanks for the cat in a jar dock rocker. lol.
