First Kill-Neon

[93accord2dr]

Well, with my new exhaust, I took a little spin about 8:30 pm. On my way home, some guy pulls up in a Dodge Neon. Now, he must have seen my exhaust and automatically thought that I would race him. He was dead on.

I'm thinkin' that it's just some retard in a Dodge Neon, thinking he's tough shit. But he starts to rev his engine, and I couldn't believe my ears, but I heard a BOV! Now I'm thinking, oh shit, I'm going to be killed. With my slushbox and all

So the light turns green, we're getting on Rt. 322 (highway for those of you whom have no idea). I kill him at the start, and am about 2-3 car lengths ahead of him, then his turbo must have kicked in (finally), and he gains about 1.5 car lengths, but I'm still ahead.

Now I'm definetly wondering who the whore isn't gaining on me, then it dawns on me....he's driving a Dodge Neon.

So we're about neck to neck, but I'm still about 1.5 ahead of him, and oh shit, here comes my off ramp. I mash it, pass him easily and put on my hazards. Of course he does the idiotic flyby, thinking he's tough shit. Oops, too bad he was just beat by a 1993 family car.

neons suck unless there the rt4's otherwise fuck neons. i kill like 15 a month lol (no lie) they always wanna fuck with me for some reason. theres like 5 red ones around here in a group and they all have silver pin stripes, its like the attacj of the bitch ride. i would kill myself if i ever lost to a shit box like them things.

Yeah I took a Neon before, it still had the purchase tag in the window. Racing around and I pulled up next to him and burned him a new one. Like 3-4 car lenghts. But the Z-28 behind me ran up my tailpipe. OWWWW

i also have killed a neon, but it wasnt a turbo.

A baseline, non turbo neon, I believe, and that's a nice kill. However, I don't believe with your current mods you could have beaten a turbo neon. If you think about it, they weigh considerably less, and w/boost, even @ low psi can outrun us anyday w/your mod list. I wasn't there, but I don't think he was even trying.

If he was toying with me, then he stayed with me pretty good. But the thing is, I kept on hearing his Blow off valve whenever he shifted, as we were going at it.

Maybe he had on eof those fake BOV things

OR he could have had a VERY bad turbo setup. I mean, if you drop your compression too low, run too big a turbo, and have inefficient plumbing, you could make the car quite slow. That could account for his catching up to you so quickly once you were 3 car lengths ahead. Nice kill Neons are the worst...
