it most deffinately isn't an SRT4 cause he said it is an auto.. if they sell their "high performance" model with an auto in it, then i don't even want to aknowledge that it exists

sad to say i think the auto neon will win, it has a bigger engine with more power and torque, even tho its an auto.

well if yours is standard you can beat him off the line but its going to be close. It also depends on the driver.

If your a skilled driver you will most definatly beat him off the line but the rest is a question becuase i don't know what he has, not to mention mods.

MIght even come down to driver... I beat many cars I shouldn't have in my Z28... 'cause I knew how to drive it... or they didn't... one or the other. LOL If you're good at driving a manual, it may be possible... unfortunately, you won't ever shift faster than an automatic... but, you have less HP loss... *shrug*

actually the auto shifts slower, but a lot more consistant.
