4966, Taking the ACR to the track Friday
Posted by sd240, Sep-21-05 06:21 PM
Like it says I'm taking my new to me stock 97 neon acr with 180k to the drags friday, just in case anybody cares. I was gonna take the TSi since I got the new 650's in, but it's getting painted. On another note my buddy has a 70 Ford Maverick that he and his dad put a 300 inline 6 in. I guess his dad used to drag one and popped wheelies all over the place, and yes there are pictures to prove. All that they have done, that I know of, is a shaved head with 202(I think) valves and a holley 650 double pumper. I think the compression is supposed to be bumped up to 9.8 or something like that because of the shaved head. They just want to get a base line on how it's running to see how much things improve. While I just want to see what the ol neon will run with 180k miles, I know it feels like it runs better than my old 97 n/t mt talon that ran a best of 16.4. Well if anybody is intrested in the times let me know, or else I won't bore you all.

Well it doesn't look like anybody cares, but I'll post anyway. Best time was...

R/T- .9350-ouch

330ft- 6.7574
1/8et- 10.4007

1000mph-77.49
1/4et- 16.0198

I didn't think it was TOO bad for a completely stock neon with 180k and a pretty heavy sub and spare(yea I was too lazy to take them out).

Funny thing is that Stock Neon ACR with 180K can still take some of the Stock RS/GS...

Good times IMO.

They're optionless and weigh MUCH less than a 2G. No surprise really.
