How did nitrous get such a bad rep...?

I knew that was gonna get ya...lol..:D..
Now back to the original question.. why not Nitrous as apposed to the other power adders???...


My buddy won speed week or whatever they call the race where you drive from track to track. He raced a Chevy powered mustang with nitrous on it. He sold the car to another buddy with less experience and he messed up the next year at the first track and did good but didn’t win. That car is sold and I’m pretty sure they are both going turbo now. I wish I was younger and knew more about them. If so I would have one.
