when you are "racing" you are governed by rules.
Very few racing classes allow for adding forced induction, and none allow for nitrous.
and I could give a shit about drag racing
in road racing, usually only some level of a motor build is allowed. Ranging from a "stock" build (showroom stock, SM) to a full race motor build (WC, production, prepared, etc)
ultimately, you want to get the most power as legal under the rules. high dyno numbers, low 1/4 mile times, etc dont mean a damn thing in real racing.
