Hey "nada", how bout you register and give your location, or better yet bring your car to Indy. I'll show you what my stock "piece of s***" protege can do to anyone out there on the track.
On the neon, yes it's still a neon, but the kit is sweet. BTW, neons make decent road course racers. Check SCCA stats for proof.
I'm not a Neon fan either, but after getting a ride in a boosted one in Michigan. I've kinda given it a little more respect. They are pretty capable track cars too once you put a suspension on them. Bottom line though, I like my protege more.
