If this is true, it would be the SRT-4 version of the neon with a 2.5L, Turbocharged, 215 horsepower, 245 lb-ft of torque at only 2800 pounds in weight.

The Dodge SRT-4 is the second fastest current-production Chrysler vehicle, and one of the fastest Dodges ever made. Even with that mind-blowing acceleration - seen in recent Dodge history only by the Viper, Spirit R/T [Road and Track], and Daytona R/T.

Having a friend with one and getting a ride, I can verify it is ball busting fast.

The GT Mustang is 300HP with 320 lb-ft of torque but weighs in at almost 3400 pounds.

So, is it possible....Anything is possible given the right conditions.

Yeah, that was me. And apparently your not familiar with the turbo neon....it's fast, and it will take out a stock 00GT. He got me on top end...mind you there was salt on the roads and i wasn't giving it my all. Funny thing is, he would get me 0 - 60 too. Many people on this site will tell you that they won't...but their arrogant...the car does 0 - 60 in 5.2 (in motor trend) so a 5.5 is realistic. Motor trend gave my stang a 5.5, realistically it will do a 5.9.

Ya dont have to be arrogant to say an SRT4 wont wax ya, you just gotta be faster, thats all. 0-60 in around 3 or so seconds and mid 11's is usually more than enough to shut up most people who are arrogant like ya say. It doesnt matter if they are in a stock LS1, a Mustang or a Neon. Faster is faster

I am arrogant to the point I dont think 13's are ridiculously fast. A few years back I thought 13's was fast on the street, but times change so do people. Keep modding...lol..
