    You're so ill-informed. Later, QD.

    When I was there is did better than more than 40 cars that day and put down a time of atleast 2 seconds faster then the second fastest guy in a track Miata. I've only been to a few SCCA events, but just saying the car surprised us all. Never knew a Neon would be so fast around a track.

    It also surprised us because it came pretty close to our FSAE cars lap times within almost a second.

    It's actually a factory color exclusive to the ACR.

    My comment was towards your comment of "no one will expect you to do well." When the first gen neon first arrived on the scene, EVERYONE expected it to do well. Because it did. The neon was one the most popular new cars on the track. Everyone knew they had to race harder because there were neons out there.

    The neon even had its own race as well. The Neon Racing Cup. I always wanted to put mine in, but never made it. Later, QD.

    Well I am then learning about it!

    This is what I get to work on in college.



    440lb car with a GT12 Turbocharged GSXR 600 making 91rwhp and 64ft/lbs of torque on E85 through a 19mm restrictor. We knew our race cars were very fast around SCCA style tracks, but didn't expect the Neon to be so close.

    Nitro Yellow Green was available on regular models too QD.

    Here is a "sport coupe" for example.
