According to that, using n2o is only cheating if you deliberately deceive someone, i.e.- lying to them about having nitrous. In my opinion, it is simply a method of making power.
I'd have to say that is exactly how I feel about it. Is running a supercharger, turbocharger, turbo, stripping the car down to 2200 lbs, etc cheating?? No way! Just don't be goin around claiming you're running a bone stock car if you're not. That'd make you a liar and a wimp.
