ex vs. NEON slayer
last night i beat this ,oh so tricked out neon, three times....It was one of those movie races, you know, he takes the lead and I come flyin passed him like I got nitrous or something. 3 times, folks.. I even blew a kiss to his girlfriend as they passed me at the light where I was turning. Guess he didn't have a HEMI!

duals do mean power in the SRT-4 but in a base neon, they only mean rice

Rep Power: 0 u sure about stock duals? lol, there's a neon that drives around my area with an ugly-*** bright green paintjob and lots of vinyl, he has a very obviously fake dual exhaust, its pretty funny looking. just curious though, how would our cars do against average neons? (not srt-4s, i know they'd win!)

Rep Power: 0 well, if their weight is identical, and they have more hp, the reason we have a faster ET might be a gearing thing. for example. my buddy has a 1990 Beretta GTZ. they have a High Output Quad Four. They put out 180HP at the crank and weigh about the same as an EX coupe. I raced him a few times when i had my 01 EX coupe. Anyway, we have very equal racing skills. When we raced, every time, we were neck and neck, all the way through 3rd. Once in fourth, the power difference was more noticeable, and he started pulling away.
Anyway, thats how im rationalizing the Neon ordeal
