So a stock srt4 couldnt even stay on your bumper? If your trans am is stock? Im not meaning to side with them, cuz I also have a t.a. But I do respect what dodge did to the neon. And not here really, but people say neons are rice? There domestic cars, I dont get it....

Well they made the viper and charger for a sports car. Dusty (neon kid on the other forum) claims to be able to hang with those cars with his SUPER DUPER NEON.

Its not rice because you slaughted a neon. Thats like saying a cavalier is rice because I can run away on him. Some of that kids points are f n stupid i know. Im just going on what I think about them, im not saying they can run with the top sports cars no way. But if I ever had to get rid of my car. I will def be lookin for one, there family cars but still fun at the same time.

I believe it. I know my car is'nt super fast by any means and I don't claim it to be. But this Neon crap really blows my mind. Bite for bite A stock neon vs a stock z28. He's gonna lose. Now if we both modded it up well he's gonna lose again. This kid has no reasoning. He Just don't get it.
I feel like I have been talking in circles.
Telling him he owns a neon, not a sportscar.
I for one can not believe for the life of me that this cheap car can out handle a camaro or a vette. If that was so I think it would have the price tag to go with it.
Then maybe they would sell 'em with Hemi's and v10's.

exactly thats what these kids dont get
they put all this money into making their cars run close when we are stock
if we spend the money they spend trying to catch us we'd be even further away
i paid 11g total tax tag and title on my car stock with 46k how much did he spend just tryin to catch us??
