I would say do it. The car is a beast and had bounced back from several hard licks from last year. The only downfall is the way the gearing is (and it may just be the track I am on) I have to shift from 2nd to 3rd halfway down the straights. Of course, with an auto, you won't run into that problem.

 

just put a 5sp in and itll kick ***.... i always wanted to run my old 2.2 turbo on a dirt track but that the only dirt it saw was a field runnin from red and blue lights [sm=badidea.gif]

 

The shifting will be ok. We run a inverted 8 course1/2 mile 3 rd gearand 1/4 mile 2nd gear.It is a cool track the 2 ovals share the strait.Run 1 lap big oval ,1 lap small oval. it gets pretty exciting mid race when we start crossing lapped traffic..Check out the link

you could aslo get a UDP that will free up some throttle response

 

UDP isnt stock
stock mean stock, you have to "cheat" where they cant find it or see it.
camber helps on dirt bigtime. if your stuff moves, start welding things in place.
tires are evrything but you need different tires depending on how the track is.
if you can get away with it find some toyo proxes 195/45/14's run 3rd all the time

We were told the other night that by "stock", it means that it has to be the original engine type for the car. It can be tweaked.

 

What about a tire like this: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....s&place=17

 

We are good on tires... we have practically an unlimited supply of second hand winter tires. :^)

 

Got some 13's you want to give away?

 

if your 2.2 cavalier is gutless, get a z24 with the 3.1! Even though I think the 2.2's are faster then the neons. The 5- speed swap in a cavalier is easy. go to www.v6z24.com and they'll tell you how to put a 5 speed in the 2.2.
