1/4 mile times

[flight704]

I bought a 97 neon 4 dr a couple months ago single cam 2.0 with a 5 spd i put it on the track up at norwalk oh and the best it would go is 17.24 well it is a 600 dollar beater with 152,000 miles so i figured that was all it had Then I put new plugs , wires , air filter , and an o2 sensor on it and took it back to the track and it went 16.40 with a .530 reaction time

funniest part was i lost breaking out to another neon 2000 model dialing 18.80 but he had an automatic

anyways does the 16.40 sound about right for the car with that many miles?

That sounds about right.

A friend of mine took his 99 Neon 4-door SOHC, Auto. down the track at National Trails at the Neo Classics. The only thing done to it was a header and cold-air induction and he was running low 17's-high 16's.

thanks for the replies I thought it was pretty good for 152000 miles and bone stock no mods I would like to put a cam , cold air intake , and a header but all my extra cash is getting eaten up by my dakota project at the moment

If i get around to doing some mods ill through up another post with the new times
