The premise was how the turbo Neon (SXT?) would stack up against the ITR's and 3 Series at Nationals in Topeka last year. The funny thing was they never really gave the outcome.

There was brief footage of a '98 from Ontario and a PY from what looked like NM. Anyhow, all I got from it was that they tossed in the towel and said it was "like bringing a knife to a gun fight".

 

<----later time zone

I just finished watching that footage. The focus was on the SRT-4 with them saying the rims were too tall and narrow and the car sat fairly high UNLIKE the Type R. <:ITR shown racing, white rocket cheers and shakes girlfriend to show her my excitement:> In a blink, it's over

As much as I watch SCR, it's kind of a **** off that the segments are so short and Kasser is a douche bag

 

Yeah I caught it. The PY was Brian Fitzpatrick's...

 

Great....so who recorded it for those of us who don't own a flipping TV?

 

what channel is that show on? i've never heard of it

 

Speed channel.

It's an OK show, at least it's much more tech-oriented vs. Tuner Transformation which is utter crap.

 

they were comparing the old, retired and played out ITR to a new Neon SRT4?

It's gotta be better, it's turbo'd yo with 17's!

I wouldn't mind driving one during a few fun runs though. Do those have a LSD?

However, considering the fact that cars are bad investments, buying a Neon really takes the cake if you ever plan to sell it.
