Man I basically have a stock Neon. Just and Exhaust and intake and a few addons, but nothing fancy. Anyways usually twice a week I have someone rev at me or roll down their window and ask me what I have under the hood.

i've only been rev'ed at in my '03... never in my '98 or my current '01. Probably because they look stock, although all i had on my '03 that you could see was my SRT exhaust.

It was mostly by slow cars... I would down shift and leave them like they were standing still. Every once in a while it would be by something with power. Even if i lost i get props for hanging with them when we got to the next light.

I had one guy in a 4.6 Stang GT flip out at the next light, asking my what the hell i had in that thing. I had him by a fender from the stop light to about 100mph. He asked me to pull over to check it out. Good guy.

I have been revved at like...only twice ever. Once it was some nissan I think. It was way to dark to tell what it was. And I was behind him for a while but couldn't make out the badge. We went head to head. The second time was a firebird that i smoked. Oh, and this civic revved but i had 3 people in the car so it wasn't worth losing. It had a really nice paint job.

the only thing I think they see is either the SRT-4 spoiler or the uh...aem sticker lol.

For some reason we always hit the gas at the same time its so weird. I don't know how it works out that way everytime. We don't beep or anything.

I don't get harrased often enough. I have gotten harrased by a lot of things more powerful than mine... I just drive on.

There has been 4-5 times where I was challenged and I accepted. All were imports with body kits... only 1 of them one... because he had a turbo...
