I went to the local track last night & was impressed by the new Neon SRT. It was in stock trim other than the exhaust. He just had side outlet for his exhaust, still with cat on though. He kept pulling a consistent 13.7'* all night. Definently didnt expect it to run that strong.

those things are real pocket rockets. how did do traction wise? i would think all that power and low weight = low traction

No car will ever beat the real pocket rocket...the Golf GTI VR6....

The new '04'* also have more power than the previous model & they now come with a LSD.

I'd have to be high to drive a Neon, so hold the LSD

He held pretty good with traction. But then again if you know how to come out of the hole, you wont have traction problems on to many cars.

More power? What hp numbers are Mopar releasing on this?
