Ok, so my uncle calls me up this evening and says, "hey Dan I have a car that I brought home from work that you might find intresting. Do you want to come over and check it out?" I promptly respond, what ya got. His resopnce is a stage 3 str-4 neon. No sooner did I hang up the phone was I out the door and halling ass over to his place (roughly 25 minutes from my house).
Just a side note, I hate dodge and neons inparticular. I have always been a ford fan and have had a long passion with the mustang, though friends can atest that I have had just about every car built under 35K. I get tired of car quickly and that is why I change up so often.
Anyway back to the story, I pull up and there it is a mopar test stage 3 neon str-4. I was suprised at how the sutttle differences made the car look so much better than a normal neon. I ask "hey can we take if for a spin?" Sure he replies and gives me the keys . We hop in and "test her out". I only have one thing to say that damn thing, FAST AS HELL! No ands ifs ors about it, that thing is crazy fast. But really what do you expect from a sport compact, front drive, with 300+ hp? I kid you not, that damn things would burn the tires off through gears 1+2 and leave a 15 foot patch in third.
Suddenly I am having second thoughts about my whole "anti-neon thing
