Default I ran a fast Neon ( slowsrt4 )

Well, I finally got to race the Neon that has been beating everyone around the DFW area. It was a damn good race. We raced about 6-8 times from a 20, 30, 45, and 60 punch. I did win. Soon I will get the videos to tell the whole story. My mods are down below.

Good job Jeremy, We need a rematch. But this time I will have on my other rims and tires.. You put about 3 cars on me from 20-100mph last time.. Lets see what you can do this time.. I'll have the new input shaft in the tranny sometime this week and ready to run next week sometime..

What do you consider to be fast? What does the Neon run?

Just curious...

If it doesn't have a parachute, it's not fast enough for Unit

He's not dissin anybody, just stating facts from his point of view. If I had a 600rwhp car I'd be the same way. His been around here long enough to be able to call it how he sees it and not pull any punches.

WTF are you guys talking about? I just asked how fast the Neon is? He made no reference to ET's, mph, or power. I'm just curious if we're talking about a 12 second Neon or a 10 second Neon. Did I mention myself or my car anywhere? No. Still, you guys go off on a tangent.

Show me where I was "dissin" people.

Sheesh...

I think you need to re-classify your car. Maybe its just me, but you seem to think you are one of the big-boys around here. IMO, Unless that new input shaft adds 100hp, you have no business acting like you have a chance against a 450/400 LS1 assuming he's a good driver.

Thanks for answering my question. I guess a lot of guys try reading between the lines.

Nice kill on the Neon. 120mph is pretty quick.

It's just the way you come off, it sounds like you have an attitude. I haven't been on the board that long and even I can see what they're reffering too just by having read a few of your posts in different threads.

I understand what you "meant" to say or were trying to say, but you could've worded it a little different. Just like you typed above, you could have just asked "What kind of ET's/MPH/HP are these cars laying down?", instead of "What do you consider to be fast, huh?"


I don't really care how you act on here btw, because a 600rwhp doesn't impress/do anything for me and it's certainly not anything new...

Dan03mach am i to understand that the neon is yours. It seems liek it is by the way you are talkin BUT i dont see it in ya sig. Just wonderin.

Ohh and my good bud Unit, I love to see how the other mods run to your aid when you get atacked. Why do they side with you when everyone else is rockin your boat. They might wanna back up and see WTF we are talkin about.

What do you consider to be fast?
**** liek that from a shittalker makes people think you are talkin down to them.

On a side note i jsut so happen to drive a 600 HP car daily and i will NEVER EVER talk down to anyone. I was there before when i was so happy with my low 14 second DSM and everyone wants to talk trash about it being slow. There is no reason to act liek that to cars that aint as fast as yours. BTW his car also cost half as much as yours if that says anything. And read my PM to you so we can have our flame war in private.

Easy guys this isnt a Unit 213 roast remember ? Don't hijack Jeremy's thread to vent you're frustrations. The neon puts down 450-460ish on race gas and its a 3000lb car .
