Ca$h, you are the LAST person on this board who can talk about Ignorance. You have shown with just about every one of your posts that you care nothing about real world knowledge and experience. You are speaking to guys who were working on cars when you were playing with Hot Wheels, and you treat them like amateurs. You are the only one who has failed to realize your OWN ignorance. If you REALLY knew what you were talking about, and i mean not just bull****ting your way through with knowledge you learned from magazines and internet sites, you would have never said as much as you did about your precious neon.

Time to go to school:

Physics class - you talk about your power to weight ratio...good...sounds great, and you have a point...however, you are forgetting an important detail. TRACTION. The SVX is all-wheel-drive. Which means, when you floor this bad boy, 230hp is slammed to the ground through 4 rather wide tires being held down by 3600lbs. The neon, especially with bolt ons, is struggling to get it's measly goat-power to the ground through skinny-as-a-supermodel tires on 13" wheels. To top that off, the neon has much less power to hold those TWO wheels down. This means the SVX already has a half car-length lead before the Neon even gets it's little ass moving. Those of you who have tried to challenge the SVX, or have been challenged in an SVX, know that letting the SVX get ahead early is guaranteeing a very embarassing contest. To top that off, the SVX's gearing is much more performance oriented than the Neon's econo setup. Power isn't everything, my friend.

Ignorance? Yeah. Now who looks stupid? Oh, we already knew that.

As the saying goes, pick on someone your own size and leave the big boys alone.
