...or a perfectly good GSC that will still get you to Walmart, and back home.

What exactly would you have to "cut up" on a 13 or 14 second FWD Stocker? Don`t even need a roll bar to go that slow. As for a Neon being a "valuable collector car", I am sure all the 440 six pak, Hemi Cudas, 427 Fairlane/428 Cobra Jet Mustangs, and 396/375HP& 427/425HP and 302 Z28 Camaro racers are rolling their eyes at that statement!

I was just kidding, Rory. I know sarcasm doesn't translate to the written word sometimes.

As soon as one of us Mopar guys would build a Neon, we would get horsepower put on us, like Mopar combos always do.....;)

No fun if you can't pull wheelies. We learn that at an early age.

Get a Neon and buy the book.

The '80s turbo 2.2 cars may be even simpler to catch the index.

As a project during Covid I found a clean '85 Chrysler Wagon with the 2.2 turbo. Some basic set up and improvements and we had a .60 under stocker that my 16 year old could drive to the track if wanted.

The car was surprisingly consistent once we figured out the 60'

.60 under for less then $7,000 CDN.....thats only $32.00 USD!
