Fair enough.

I have utilized search, hence the question of whether you embelished like the people you mock in your article. FYI - Stage 3 coilovers does not make your car a Stage 3 NSRT-4.

Er, why not? If it has Stage 3 power but stock suspension, is it a Stage 3 then? This is a serious question. When I bought the car in 2004, we took everything Mopar had to offer, as you can see in the For Sale listing.

What type of lap times did you run in that car. What track, what configurations?

I have no idea. It was my wife's car, and it wasn't a race car, so we didn't put a lap timer in it. About all I can tell you is that it was capable of hitting an indicated 130-132 on the back straight at Mid-O. It was just supposed to be a fun car for her to drive around, and until it got broken into and beat up a bit, I think she was very happy with it.

Nothing against the other neon guys, but they don't run around telling everyone who would lap them 3 times in a 30 minute session to "step-up to their level" and become a racer.

Looks to me like the Spec Neons at Mid-O would have dropped you a bit, but that's beside the point. The whole idea of wheel-to-wheel racing at the club level is to create a driver's race. Your car's supposedly faster than a Grand-Am GS car; does that mean you're a better driver than Seb Bourdais (who ran an FR500C last year), Charles Espenlaub, Craig Stanton, or Wolf Henzler? There are fast cars, and fast drivers. Don't confuse the two.
