Default what??? I dont care if a neon runs the 1/4 with a C-GT...they would fall apart at 130mph

Also, which one do you think is gonna last longer...those SRT's are blowing up at 30K miles....UNMODDED! So, go ahead, show me a modded Neon that is gonna humiliate me in a GT3...whether it be dragging, on a track, or auto-x...I would rather be driving the GT over the neon anyday

Default And M3's were blowing up at 3k with no mods either. Porsches aren't the most reliable cars

so I wouldn't go down that road.

Default yep...just like those honda's with NOS and every other mod in the book, but...what happens

when we get to the next light and in the Porsche, I can launch again, and again...but oh no, the hondo and neon are out of NOS.
Or, maybe a track day is coming up...thats just too bad for the Hondo and Neon isnt it.

Default have had both...and no problems with either one yet...knock on wood

We did have a notice about the connecting rods on the M, and BMW took care of that...

12 GT3's had a problem with their valves being made a different way, making them more suceptible to breaking - of course, ours is one of the 12 (its great winning that lottery) and Porsche is taking care of it. That is the nice thing about owning a car like the Porsche or BMW...when the factory realizes a problem, they tell you BEFORE it explodes.

My point is, obviously there is a different between something like an M3, or a GT3 and a Neon...whether you want to admit it or not.

Default i've beaten 2 on the mean streets of Detroit...

they can't handle the torque off the line......both of the ones i raced were STOCK....and had huge front wheelspin. i won by about 1-2 car lengths.

it was a fair race too.

i also had rolling runs with one of them and i stayed completely EVEN with him...no winner on that.
