Seeing another pic of the ol' SRT makes me wonder. Sometimes.. those rims just look smaller than 17" You know what I mean??. Call me picky but I swear they look smaller sometimes, Guess ill have to see one in person. (note to self: new observation of seemingly smaller rims will not deture you from lusting after car)
That one doesn't even have the rear inside wheel pulled up into the air yet. Don't think you could get enough traction on the front to roll one like that.
In response to Raptor and Hemi, perhaps an explanation of the course would help. The course was laid out on an abandoned runway, taxiway, and parking area next to a hangar. The course started on the runway, went up the taxiway to the parking area, then back down the taxiway to a long section on the runway with a 180 degree turn at the end, then back up the runway to the finish. The picture was taken as I neared the end of the taxiway, preparing to enter the runway. There was a short slalom on the taxiway and a sweeper onto the runway. The car is set up for the sweeper. I have a video of the run, and the back, inside tire never left the ground. In my 1997 ACR, when it was stock, three-wheeling was common on sweepers. I think that it was partially the result of the limited suspension travel on the 1st generation Neons. I have not seen many 2nd generation neons autocross, but I think that the increased suspension travel probably reduces the possibility of three-wheeling. The SRT was very stable and predictable during the autocross.

Nope, I drive the Swift SSCA car alot harder than that. Yet, I have the four strut bars and Koni setup. I really miss this on the SRT-4. I sometimes wish they went a little farther on the SSCA setup than street aparels.

Yeah, I agree. The understeer was not nearly as bad as I thought it would be, the car is actually fairly neutral. Most of the understeer is evident during acceleration. Too much body roll though, what is funny is with that much weight shift you would think it'd transition to oversteer easy, but it doesnt. Oh well. New suspension coming soon. Hey shaag, what about those corner exits? :lol:
They sold about 23000. I used to see a bunch back in the day. Not so much anymore. For those srts still functioning, what is the age group of the current drivers? I'm on the older side. I figure young people are more concerned about the latest phone instead of keeping a 15 year old car on the...
Bought this car a couple months ago. Where does this vacuum line supposed to go? There was obviously a line connected to it before but all that's left is the zip tie lol.
Raced behind a SRT8 challenger and pissed him of. His car was spitting black smoke when it shifter (when I was behind him I saw it spew out). Easily passsssssht around him in about 4 blocks. My car has been in the garage way too long. LULZ
