Questions for Neon Racers

[Rabbit07]

Just an update I would like to let everyone know that there was some confusion here regarding what pads are going to not be produced by Hawk anymore. Only the HT-10 pad for the Neon is going away. The Blues will still be available.

Well that certainly is good news. Now only if I could find all of the loose change I have lost over the years to buy about 6 or 7 sets of extras for when they decide to stop making the blues.

I liked the Willwood Polymatrix for the front on the Neon (no longer available). I finally ran out of my supply, and moved to the Hawk HT-10s... they were good too, but didn't quite bite the same way. Jason @ Andrew Racing was great to deal with for the Hawks, BTW.

Most parts are still widely available for the car and there is no excuse for not being able to come up with factory replacement parts (you can't throw a rock in a junk yard without hitting a neon). recently, I was buying complete parts cars for less than $300.

What I would have liked to see for the neon is a full spherical bushing kit... not just the front arms, but the whole suspension. Even with poly bushings, the car had way too much bushing deflection for precise alignments.

A track tested front airdam/splitter would be nice as well. I tried a few things with my car, but they always had negative results.

I guess it doesn't really matter to me now though...

I miss my neons!
