How do we know that the CRX Si (or Integra GSR or Wombat GT...) was only available with a sunroof? Does the Factory Service Manual document that? Does the...
Spec Neon definitely lives on at Waterford Hills. We started the class there and intend to continue it as long as people are racing.
As far as the Shadow front knuckles - don't bother. That...
Adjust your tire pressures. With the Spec Neon setup we run the Toyos at 35 psi front and 40-42 psi rear. The higher pressures in the rear help with rotation.
I would also dial out some of the...
I'm glad to see the 2nd Gen Neon has been classified. Is the weight listed for the ACR and R/T a typo thought? 2780 seems way excessive for that car. Its over 100 lbs higher than the SSC weight...
Hawk blue fronts, cheapo Murrays in the rear - at least thats the plan for next year.
Like Toby, as long as I stay in SN I'm pretty well set. The 22mm rear bar is getting harder to find for new...
I have been using the modular clutch in my 95 Neon since '98 with great results. The first, stock Neon modular clutch lasted through 9 seasons of SSC and Spec Neon racing before needing replacement...
That sounds about right actually. The spec weight for the DOHC is 2650, so that would put him at 2470. My car is at 2465 with a full tank of fuel and no ballast. I'm guessing most DOHCs would have...
VERY well put.
My suggestion would be to stick with the Spec Neon setup to start with. Replace the blown out Arvins with newer Arvins or Konis - if you can find used in good shape go for it. Keep the High Rate...
I'm pretty sure I've got some extra Arvins laying around, let me dig through my stuff and see.
Where are you located?
15" wheels have always been allowed in ITB and ITC, but only when available as OEM.
The rule change of a couple of years ago allowed all cars that came with 13" or 14" wheels OEM to up size to...
Shouldn't the Omni GLH be moved to ITB at the same time as the Shelby Charger? I can't think of any differences between the two vehicles that would justify separate classing.
5x100 is the same bolt pattern as the Dodge Neon and several smaller GM vehicles. There are tons of used OEM 14x6 and 15x6 alloy wheels out there. These wheels should have similar offset to the...
Kris Walker was there taking photos. His galleries from that weekend are at the link below...

There are a couple of dealers here in the Detroit area who are quite familiar with Neon racing and even offer racer discount pricing. They will ship anywhere in the US as well. The dealers are...
Here is the part number for the ACR Hub and Bearing kit...
P5007314
Definitely buy the kit if your dealer can locate it. The cost of the kit is significantly less than the buying the pieces...
We just had a lengthy discussion on this same topic in the Spec Neon section of the NASA Forums.
Here's the link to the Spec Neon section - there's probably quite a bit of information that applies...
The Neon uses a 5x100 bolt pattern. Something around 35mm offset works well.
Rota makes two different 15x7 wheels for the Neon, both are available from Modern Performance for under $500/set.

Details are trickling in....
The Neon Showcase event will be September 29/30, 2007 at Waterford Hills.
The event is open to all Neon and SRT4 racers from Spec Neon, ITA, SSC, T2, ITE or NASA...
I had NASCAR bars added to the Kirk cage in my 4-door Neon last year. Sky-Tek in Rochester, MI did the work and it turned out beautifully. They have done the same work for many of the Neons here in...
But I did find several cars that have multiple engine choices, in the same class listed on SINGLE spec lines. What is the justification for the Neon to have multiple spec lines when every other...
Lets say I build two Neons. Donor car #1 is a '95 2-door with a SOHC. Donor car #2 is a '95 4-door with a DOHC. Both cars are built exactly the same, and are 100% legal. I race that way for a...
I would follow the same pattern as all of other spec lines that have multiple listings
Chrysler Neon, (2 & 4 door) including ACR. (95-99)
Engine type - 4 Cyl SOHC or 4 Cyl DOHC.
Bore &...
Yes. However, I cannot legally put a SOHC engine into an original 2-Door ACR. At least as I interpret the rules.
See where it's kinda messed up?
Right now, in my garage I have got an ex-SSB...
