You know thats a ------- good idea. Why didn't dodge just discontinued the neon and when they built the srt-4 make a whole new name for it? That would have been smart..

As far as racing a srt=4 with a stock engine...of course your going to lose. You better have an sti or 350z to be able to beat those fuckers if your car isn't boosted

Neons are crappy, but the srt-4 is fast. Thats pretty much it.

Every dodge / chrysler car I have ever seen past the age of 4 years has paint problems. My girls chrysler roof was bald metal by the time she sold it, they just dont invest in theor paint jobs.

That doesn't mean with boost you will own him. Unless you break a 13 sec run boosted your still going to lose. I've seen a lot of boosted honda's on here not even break into the 14's depending on their engine. So i suppose it depends on what you have now

If he does it right it will.

Chrysler has a good history of factory turbocharged cars. Easily upgradage and handle a lot of power look at the old 2.2 turbos. Guss had his van running what high 12's low 13
s with fairly minimal mods.

As for a 350z beating an srt-4 ummm no. I think the 350z's only run mid 14's so even in the slowfire I could keep up with one of those if not win.

Hah! i just beat one the other day and it had a stage 1 upgrade on it. his mods were chipped ecu, bigger injectors, k&n filter, and some other ----. i got a 91 crx si (stock d16a6) T3 turbo @ 9psi. he got me off the launch cuz i just sit there spinning but as soon as i threw it in second i was up on his ass again then popped it into third and damn i just stared pulling right by him!!! ;D ;D GO SINGLE CAM TURBO GO!!!!!! 8) they're fast but i think a good HMT kit would take one out!

the 350z will not lose to the srt-4 its 1/4 is 14.0 flat and the srt-4 is 14.2. There are records too that show they have the same 1/4 mile time. Heres the link I found about the 350z http://nissan.jbroadtests.com/Z/2003/index4.php
And this is the srt-4 http://www.fantasycars.com/sedans/html/neonsrt.html

Whitey,
Just to let you know the Pinto was only the most dangerous car on the road because it was rushed into production. The guys over at Ford developed a fuel bladder to go inside the tank so when the tank was punctured or something it wouldnt explode. howevwer they thought it wasnt cost effective and left it out. with that bladder in the tank the pinto was one of the safest cars around with all the other saftey feature that were added.

that guy must suck at driving.. you kept up within 3 cars??? so with everything you have, you run ~15.0? those things are suppose to run 14.0 if not i've seen 13.9 stock. i'm guessing he was a shitty driver like the one i saw at rockfalls raceway last summer, he ------- got a blue srt-4 and ran at BEST a 15.2 ::)
