lookie what i brought home

[aaa]

well... something like that... i don't care about it. i bet an evo or a sti can beat one of those any time at any place....

handling: evo and sti will kill the neon srt4 really bad on mountain pass.... autocross, need i say more

drag: awd have advantage... need i say more

please notice that i am talking about stock cars.

plus $20000 for $3000 more you can get a decent car for rallying, awd and same hp(or more) plus a car that is better tune by factory

Thats almost me.. or a 22 year old with a 3000sqft house in california, 300whp 04 neon (bought new and own slip), 98 eclipse daily driver, and 832 gallons of water in my den and family room (including a 450 gallon) damn all that on enlisted military pay.

ok lets see some pics of you and and your house and cars to back up your claims big shot, mabey try to keep your parents out of the pics

lol i laugh @ the internet everyone tryin to outdo the other lol, ps the srt4 is the qucikest manufactured stock car although it isnt a Neon neither SAAB influenced my friends

why is the car quick? the srt-4 will destroy by v-8 rwd cars out there in drag racing. the srt-4 will destroy by other car such as integra type-r(real type r, not the rice r) or wrx(not sti) in autocross. the srt-4 will kill by other cars in rallying. so why is that the quickest car? there is no point in building a car that only has hp without any refinement on handling at all. plus subaru is doing great in actual internation race. here is the result in world rally championship of subaru impreza

driver championship
1995 Colin McRae
2001 Richard Burns (great driver... too bad he passed away)
2003 Petter Solberg

Manufacturers' Championship
1995
1996
1997

well, you may say that is a special race car, but the wrx sti is actually doing good in group N (near stock) rallying

by the way ford focus rs wrc is winning race

can the srt-4 do the same thing? quick car doesn't mean it is fast on the staight line.

Sti's are great cars (wrx's are not) I also love evos but at the time when i was shoping for a new car in earily of 04 an evo 8 was going for around 28-38k i know i looked for quite a while and 27300 was the best i could do and thats only because i had a family member working at the dealership. So since i was making airmen pay i got a 04 srt4 for 21500 otd and its been a great car for me and has responded to the mods and route ive taken very well.
As for the v-8 discussion if its n/a its usally not a problem, ive ran into some really well done marrows/vettes/goats that shut me down with out problem but for a 20k car ive been at the line before a lot of the same and never lost to an n/a stang.
There are always a few people who do amazing things with each type of car and we all can list what they have done, and since aaa brought up pro racing if you look up darrell cox he has done some pretty amazing things with neons including http://www.good-guys.com/news/ggNewsDetail.aspx?ID=575 and his drag car has 1400hp on the same platform.

we are on different topic there... you talk about drag and i talk about rallying... totally different world. american racing culture is different from the rest of the world. in america, nascar first, then drag, then indy car

in rest of the world, f1 first, then rally, then gt car and drifting, then drag and indy, nascar is almost unheard of.

anyway... making big hp is great, but can a fwd handling all the power and apply all the way down the track?

until any of you have a vehicle that turns 9s, put a lid on it. 9.78 1/4 gidde........ all for under $15k I'd rather have my big d**k and my bike then a cooper or a neon just havin fun, but kinda serious too
