i ran one of these once, but i dont really consider it a race....  all i had was a built head at the time, and it was not even close...  i killed him,  was anything done to it?
I could tell he wasnt stock, but he wouldnt tell me anything

My best beats;

'94 Ranger single-cab with a mild 302 under the hood (out-shifted him)
'99 Mustang V6 (outshifted, and to add insult the 'stang had a 97 mph speed limiter so bye-bye 'stang in the rear view)
95% of Civics
90% of Focuses (or "Focii")
2003 V8 Dodge Dakota... not sure what happened to that one.

One car to watch for that can easily beat most NA Neons, especially with bolt-ons, is the 2004 Focus with the 2.3-liter Duratec I4... watch out for those things (Also known as the "PZEV" Partial -Zero-Emissions-Vehicle). They look normal, but all you gotta do with those is replace the factory air filter with a piped K&N, and replace the manifold-catalytic converter (same thing on those motors) with a cheap header, and those cars jump up to an easy 170 hp / 170 ft/lb tq no problem, no other mods.

A friend of mine had one with a 5-spd, and pulled away from me easy all day long.

My Drag strip wins are just against an '89 S10 and a '69 Bug :-P  I also raced a Mazda Speed6 but it was pretty fixed up so I didn't stand a chance.
I've got a ton of street wins (and losses :-P)

Never lost to a Civic or a Cav
Have beaten an Altima, a couple Camries, Mazda 6, V6 Mustang, sentras, and for sure others that I don't care to remember at the moment

One time I had a crazy 3-way race between myself (duh), an '05 (I think) Stratus, and an '03 Ram 1500.  We all 3 stayed neck and neck the entire race.  I just thought it was cool because we were all Dodge cars and it went up in order from my I4 to a V6 to a V8.  Dunno how sweet that really is but I got excited :-) haha.

yeah they're nice but unless you know how to drive one they aren't worth much :-P
also in my defense the Mazda Speed6 beat me by .9 seconds :-D which I think is pretty good since it had twice the power mine does

My Neon is bone stock because it's my DD, other than MSD wires (95 Coupe DOHC (3.94 final drive ratio) 5 speed)

Here's my kill list:

Several Scion TCs
F150 V8 (Last gen)
Several V6 Mustangs (Last gen)
4 door Neons and SOHC Neons
Toyota 4Runner
Toyota PickUp
Chevy Cobalt
Silverado 2500 Turbo Diesel with 33" tires
Mazda 6 (V6) That was a close race, just barely squeaked by. I had a perfect launch and I launched hard, which allowed me to get the jump on her.
And a bunch of other cars that weren't important enough to remember... now that I think about it, I race more people in my Neon than in my Vette. Haha.

I've only lost to:

A Nissan Titan (V8)
Silverado 2500 Turbo Diesel with stock tires
And an Evo 8, haha. I didn't expect to win, I was just messing around with my friend.


Here's a kill story about the TC, it's hilarious, and true.
