you gotta love those races in which the other guy is cool wether he wins or looses.

It should be like that everytime. IMO

damn R/T and SRT-4, I take it the SRT-4 is the new one then? What the hell is the R/T model then?? Im gonna go get some education on this one on some search engines.


follow up.

SRT-4
2.4 Liter HO Turbocharged Gas
Front Engine / FWD
16-Valve DOHC
4cyl In-line
2,429 cc
215 @ 5400 RPM
245 @ 3200 RPM
6000 RPM

I gotcha now.. Self explanitory then. I guess I just dont pay to close attention to neons. So im guessing the R/T must have around 130 hp or so. Good kill though bro. Its always nice to see Mugen killen some Mopar.

and i look like this.


Greddy SP2 exhaust.

it really wasnt even a close race.. but again, he started it.


oh, and btw. i think the R/T's had somewhere in the range of 150 horses. which would inihilate any ordinary Ex. but please dont quote me on those numbers.

Niiiiiiiiiiiice motor, I love the b16, light, and just enough power. I wish I could throw one in my car, but at this point in time im doing the exterior first. Smog regulations suck in California so I have to be carefull about what I do. Especially since im going out to be a police officer lol.

and damn, the lower end neons has 132hp and the R/T 150?? damn, Thank god I dont race anymore, I would feel so humiliated if I lost to a standard neon. Keep in mind I have an Auto Ex which I plan on keeping and switching to a B16a when the time is right, even though it will be a bitch to convert an auto to 5spd. Your probably thinking why convert? My car has sentimental value to me, Id hate to let it go knowing its possible to convert
