Default Neon drivers...

Why do you feel the need to try to race anything on two wheels? Is it to prove how crappy your car really is because that's all it's proven the last 100 times a Neon has tried to take me off a light (and all I'm riding is an SV).

I dun get it

Dunno...I would never try that in the wife's SRT-4 (Neon). Now if I was in the Z06...on the R1...or the R6 I may give it a shot.





Hey...it's paid for.

Fighter jets ready to scramble.

see, that's just it: it's never anything like an SRT-4 - it's always the older ones (the ones they used to advertise with "hi")

It's because the vast majority of Neon drivers are skinny white boys from the suburbs, and skinny white boys from the suburbs are into street racing

Speaking as a woman married to a man-who-used-to-build-and-race-Neons (fast ones, actually) I can say with 100% confidence - I have NO fucking idea... Seriously, Chris had fast Neons (no, it's not always an oxymoron), and he would've NEVER even thought of attempting to race a bike.

The whole reason he got AWAY from them is because once he got a bike, he knew no matter WHAT ya do to a car, the bike will always be faster. Sounds like the skinny ass white boys in your hood need to be taught that lesson.

personally, I hate those cars, and their motors. the 420a, and the mitsubishi 4G63 and all its variants. yes you can make some good power for relatively cheap, but honestly, who gives a fuck? bikes will outrun most cars on the road any day of the week anywhere on earth pretty much. plus we get more hot women than the neon drivers.

Yeah when we bought the car (for the wife)...back in 2003 she wanted something fairly quick...good handling and brakes...manual transmission and for not much money.

We were living together and saving for a trip to Hawaii to get married on the beach and also in the process of purchasing our home.

The little yellow car has actually been a good one...four doors and a bigazz trunk and can still turn about a 14 second 1/4 mile.

Funny thing though the typical driver IS skinny young white guys ...they see her car (tinted windows)and think it's one of their buddies and then see she's a middleaged woman and must think someone's mom is driving their kids car. She laughs about that all the time.
