Just figured I'd post to see if the guy is on here who flew by me in a WRX, with a Neon not far behind him. I'm not sure of the color of the WRX, but I dont think it was a light color. The Neon was white. I was driving back from the bars with my friends and they flew by... 120 mph maybe? Anyways, post up if that was you...

I would say that it coulda been me, but I was @ work at that time....my other whip is a neon and it's fast as ish for a NA 4 banger (of course it's not stock).....
It wasn't me, but I've had my 1997 Neon SOHC over 115mph.Originally posted by Wrinkleboi

Josh, you've ridden in my Neon. It is an excellent handling car. The brakes are the real problem with going over 100mph. Once I was booking down the NE extension at well over 100mph and the brakes we badly warped by the time I reached the tollbooths.Originally posted by Trailboss
