The main reason NOS is not permitted is because of the"Unfair Advantage" factor.

Unfair Advantage: for example- you launch and on take off you know you spin badly,you are behind as you approach the finishline. You hit the nitrous which shoots you forward to take the finishline. Giving your competition no fair chance to DRIVE the finishline.

Now, all NOS users will not use it like this, but it's there so that they can if they choose. So remove the NOS and remove the Unfair Advantage factor.

Get it? Now stop calling each other names and behave. We want more 10.90 racers to join us, not think we're a bunch of Monkeys.
Ed,
That's the way it was explained to me 20+ years ago, but I used my throttle stop override the exact same way (my stop was just activated by a switch on the shifter). Of course the massive speeds in .90 racing today kinda negates that advantage.
