Re: SVX vs. 5-speed Neon

YES, the Neon gave a good fight, but only up until about 55 mph. But if you think for a sec... A race only to 55 mph in the SVX.?.?.? Then you aren't even close to doing a 1/4 mile yet, and that's how all races (nothing shorter) should be judged.

All in all.... I won without a doubt, and I hope this brings some kind of understanding and resoultion to all the hostility.

Thank-you for your time.

SEE?! This is exactly what I was trying to say. Neons ARE in the same league as the SVX to about 60mph. I'd say the neon should have pulled ahead somewhere in the middle (between 0 and 60mph), but...meh, it was undoubtedly a 5spd neon so its sorta up to the driver. Anyway, thank you Joe for proving my point. And yes, there are quite a few races shorter than 1/4 mile. The 1/8th mile for example... Or how I race, which is only up to about 60mph to avoid huge tickets.
