I raced one but it was just after I installed my headers and my car was getting serious hesitation, he beat me but not by much. Id like to race him again, he probly wouldnt win. They arnt bad at all though, considering what a neon normally is.

No they aren't bad....I guess the one I raced had a stage I or stage II upgrade or something(that is what he told me).......It sounded tight.

I went to an srt-4 event and they all pretty much beat me, the average was 14 low to 13 high, I was able to beat one but I guess it was just luck, btw i'm stock (14.7)

they are not bad but if you have some mods on your stang and you can shift fast then you are sure to beat them. I live here in CT and i have seen some in a town called Enfield and they race and the 5.0 pulls on them. But i give them respect but i mean put a turbo or twin turbos and your in another world. Just keep that in mind.

well i live in a town called Suffield (live in West Suffield) and if you dont know where that is then i am right bordering Enfield, Windsor Locks, Southwick, Granby, Agawam. If any of those ring a bell i am right near them. But ya in enfield and then when i go on the highway i tend to see them every once and a while. I have not been beat by one yet. But i am tellin ya if you can drive and shift good then i am sure you can beat them. (Might need alittle bit of mods to help you out) And ya my camera sucks i have to get a new one because when i squeeze pictures down it just like rips up the picture. (****ty quality i guess) Does anyone know how to get a picture in your signature? I have one in my profile and i would like to put that one in on the signature. Also what color and what does your ride look like (if you want to see mine just look in the profile).

Ive not had any trouble out running the ones in my area. A few are pretty sharp too. Nice cars.

those SRT4s are quick as hell. dont underestimate them, stock they run 15 psi thats more than most stock turbocharged cars.
