This is a summary of the topic. A turbo srt-4 caught up to a gta in high altitude.

So very interesting.

This is a summary of the replies. Lets argue about the 1/4 mile times of a srt-4. Hey, lets argue about other srt-4 stuff and other stuff in general.

Great thread guys, i really feel like i learned something about racing.

You're in the wrong forum if you want to learn something about racing. Try clicking on the one above this one next time.

At least your post was a wonderful example of what an informative post should be. Jam packed FULL of useful information....

twobirds, what's the next mod after the race with the SRT-4 Neon? Intake, torque converter, more gears, better tires, etc. ?

It's turbocharged and rated at 230 hp. I don't know the numbers for a fact, but heard of very low 14's in the quarter off the showroom floor.
