pretty neat. I agree w/ the RWD comment. A rwd SRT-4 would be pretty awesome. Then again it might be reminiscent of Ford's 4 cylinder Mustangs.
The NHRA has a calculation chart for altitude, Right Click and save as in my Sig.
For 5800 you multiply his ET by 1.0773

He runs a 14.8 up here at Bandimere speedway. My truck runs a 14.9 while in 4x4 (If only I could hook up and run in 2wd). Two years ago when I ran my 14.9 I also had the stock 21# injectors on it, I could not tune it like this guy did. This year I have 30# injectors from the 8.1 liter, It's going to be fun to finally have the fuel system to really open her up
I think you're neglecting that the 14.8 was stock...
Oh, and he must be a sh!tty driver to get a 14.8 in a SRT-4, they should run high 13's/low 14's.

How's that cheating? Spraying either distilled water or a alcohol mix on the intercooler to get a few extra degrees out of it is no big deal, let alone the results are negligible.
People can dis this car as much as they want, but until they drive one their opinions are meaningless. The suspension is pretty damn solid, the interior is a HELL of a lot nicer than a freaking cavalier (ahem tyco interior), and the semi-racing seats are a nice touch. The throttle response on this car is amazing, the engine was designed rock solid, and with a few extra bucks (like <20$) and some basic knowledge you can essentially tune the thing to push quite a few more horses, and boost higher and quicker while still being safe. Neons are widely praised in the SCCA, and have a reputation in autocross, so saying 'its a neon' is as retarded as it would be to compare a v6 mustang to a cobra.

The thing about oxygen is the higher you go up in altitude the less there is
I didn't realize you had already adjusted his time, I thought you had posted his raw data.
Still, that is what his did STOCK. It's obviously nowhere near stock now.

I have to side with ThePerculator on this one. As a driver of a 2003 Neon SXT I have to say the neon is probably one of the best handling cars in the "Economy Class". My buddy's 2002 Civic Si can barely keep up with me when driving for fun. Sure the interior isn't a pretty as the Corolla or the Civic. But Dodge cut the cost on the interior and developed the suspension a lot more. Cars like the Corolla, the Cavalier, and the Nissan sentra have nice interiors (except the cavalier) but all three of them have live axles on the rear wheels.
FWD car with a "live axle(s) on the rear wheels?"
I think we can safely ignore you now.

anything is possible, i am sure this car probably could be made perfectly reliable... maybe it already is!
Here's the one from the corolla to start off
Corolla Specs
Torsion beam is a rigid axle (also known as a live axle) with limited movement, no where near the movement of a fully independent suspension.
Boo-yah
To the best of my knowledge (and the best I could find via Google) to be a live axle it must be driven.
Viper GTS
it's like saying an indepentdent suspension must be driven, but it is still associated with both the driven side and the non-driven side

Do a right click, and save as..
Oh yeah, that blue car is indeed an STI, and the SRT-4 is pretty much stock except for some drag radials.. Both cars ran low 13's.
Your imprezza huh? a good run right? Live in SoCal? why don't you come out to the Fontana Speedway on the the 28th and run against one of the local peeps with just a neon..
Stock Internals, upgraded turbo, slicks - right click, save as
Facts about the SRT-4
1) The engine has been around since 1994 (Mexico - Turbo'd Dodge Stratus).. PT Cruiser GT, and now the SRT-4.
2) The SRT-4 finished as the champion SCCA Pro Rally (Group 5 - 2WD class)
3) Watch for it as it'll be dominating the SCCA T2 (Touring 2) later this year.
The only thing you'll own is the 60ft and the look on your face (after the 60ft) after it passes you by..
