Me vs. Stock Neon srt 4
 
Who will win?? Im bone stock until i get my exhaust put on next week, and a guy who keeps tellin me my car is slow as crap n is a POS! And his neon is BONE stock!

Lances03SVT 08-09-2005 08:13 PM

I just got smoked by one the other day,but I don't think it was stock and I let off way too early with a 3 car lead from the start.Got a little overconfident and relaxed and then I heard something that sounded wierd and he blew past me.Won't underestimate one again.

StangGT804 08-09-2005 08:27 PM

So basically its a WIN for me?? or its not??

Lances03SVT 08-09-2005 08:28 PM

Hard to say,they are pretty quick for a Neon.

WaterDR 08-09-2005 08:28 PM

Stock for stock, you have about a 0.2 - 0.4 sec advantage over him

StangGT804 08-09-2005 08:35 PM

typical ricer attitude

It's not just there,they are everywhere.After I pulled up next to the guy again I asked him what mods he has done and he said it was "Mostly stock" yea right.

WaterDR 08-09-2005 08:39 PM

Remind him that the Neons are going away next year. Mustangs will be here forever.

stanger00 08-09-2005 08:40 PM

i hate to say it but you are going to lose. thats unless you can powershift better then a shift cart and get the tires to hook up with a 3k launch even then you would barely win. guys in srt 4's are some cocky bastards until you hand their asses to them. good luck.

roushrider81 08-09-2005 08:41 PM

are you racing at a track or on the road. If at a track i think you will beat him but if you do a 20 or 30 mph roll on i think he will beat you cause i drove one of them before and it was fast as hell

StangGT804 08-09-2005 08:42 PM

TayWolf55 08-09-2005 08:46 PM

Its going to be a total driver's race with the neon getting the edge. Make sure you race from a stop.

roushrider81 08-09-2005 08:46 PM

I raced a friend's SRT-4 before, he had some mods, I had less mods than I do now, I beat him but if we would've kept going he would've caught me.. they pull pretty damn hard

cobra4123 08-10-2005 04:52 AM

Turbo's are a hellava drug

Nice... are you headed out torwards branson for the cruise this saturday? Check out www.mwsns.com/forums/index.php - they are having a big bbq and a couple guys from kc-mustangs.com is coming down. :D

you SHOULD beat him in the end but he will be on your ass the entire time. If you mess up you lose. Those SRTs are quick but the GT is slightly faster.

Srt-4
 
SRT-4 has a power/weight advantage, and if you ever race on a roadway, do the following rules:

1. Always run from a dead stop - from a roll they have the advantage

2. Always establish a finish line - preferably 1/4 mile or less

3. Don't believe them when they claim to be stock - eyeball their turbo, exhaust and wastegate if you can - Dodge and the aftermarket have a number of bolt-on upgrades that really enhance their turbos, and most of the aggressive owners have done some or all of these to their cars

There were 2 such cars on my daily commute - I say were, because I passed both of them sitting on the side of the road with smoke rising from their toasted motors. I stopped to offer assistance to the driver of the black car (the bozo with the yellow car can walk home - we have a history) - he had only 6000 miles on the car and had put an upgraded turbo kit, exhaust and tune (including bypassing the rev limiter, I bet) in it. Blew up within a week.

He was hoping the dealer would give him a new motor under warranty, and seemed surprised when I suggested he refit the old parts - seems he sold them to a nice guy on ebay...

Duh.

Or if you cant looks, just listen for anything other than an exhaust. That is another way of distinguishing it apart from being stock.

95bstallion 08-10-2005 11:06 AM

stage???
 
Well two be honest if they ordered a stage 2 or 3 mopar kit from factory they are still stock and i dont think alot of mustangs could touch a stage 2 and according to a guy that drives a blue stage 3 the people from dodge said the stage 3's run a 12.4 in the quarter.......

tripleblack 08-10-2005 11:20 AM

Stage Stock?
 
Dodge doesn't void the warranty when they add a stage 3, etc? Ford does with their FRPP stuff. Buy a go-fast part from Ford through the dealer, have them install it, and they smile, take your money, and make sure you know you just voided your warranty. This applies to cobras who upgrade their blowers, including the whipple item FRPP sells.

I find it hard to believe that d/c will replace a blown motor, even if they did sell them the parts to destroy it with.
