That jeep looks real nice, and you have to love the 13 second quarter mile time.

im pretty sure if you got me on an autox course I would TOAST your mini. Most drivers (including yourself) dont know the limits of the SRT4. Its unpredictible. The SRT4 stock will slalom @ almost 70 mph. And with a few upgrades provided from mopar it will out slalom a viper.
everyone is the best driver on the planet in their own eyes...

I usually agree with most of your posts Remmy, but here your completley wrong. A stock BASE Cooper wouldnt be able to come anywhere close to my time on an autox course. A cooper s is a little closer, but I will still get a better lap time than either.

read the review on the SRT4

clicky

its insulting saying a Mini Cooper is going to "eat alive" an srt4 on the autox, sure the Cooper is easier to drive, more nimble, but the SRT4s brakes, suspension and transmission were all designed for the track. You might be able to take a corner more easily than my SRT4, but I will out brake you and walk away from you after the corner.

The misinformation will never cease surronding this car. The Neon is one of the most sucessful cars in the SCCA and Grassroots racing. Period.

With my SRT4? I have been to 11 events since April

With my 04 WRX before i got rid of it? About a year, ive traveled as far as upstate NY with the Scooby

With the STi prior to selling it? Not too much, but ive brought it out 3 or 4 times.
