Default Greetings - from a NYG Owner

I just registered on the forum a few days ago. and have enjoyed reading all of the different post.

I am the owner of a 95 Nitro Yellow Green Dodge DOHC 5 speed Neon that I race in SCCA events. This past weekend I raced at Memphis MotorSpeed Park, this coming weekend I am racing at Road Atlanta.

I was looking for info on my Neon to get it going - I had wrecked it 2 months ago and have not quite got all of the issue worked out of the car. I have found a lot of very useful information and able to ask questions and get very good answer back!

Look forward to chatting more with Everyone!

Thanks
Greg

Not sure how this wil look on the forum - I will try to atleast put up some quick links - still experimenting with this.

I probably should just create a Gallery.

Again - I am experimenting here

Thanks for the warm welcome!

Kuhmo is not bad - but you have to place in the top 5 of your Class to get any Kuhmo bucks to apply towards your tires.
They Kuhmo Guys are Great - in fact I will be racing against one of the engineer this weekend at Road Atlanta

Hi Roy - Welcome aboard!

More updates after this weekends race!

Racing is not that hard of a sport to get into.

For me - it was easy since I picked ShowRoom Stock Class - all I had to do is add my Safety equipment - and go to a weekend school to get my Novice Permit to Race.
I think the car has about $1k worth of safety gear, I have another $500 in personal safety gear, and school was about $200. Then it is off to the races!

check out www.scca.org - under the club link and it will give you all the details or you can ask me any question - if I can not answer it - I know plenty of people that can!

I do enjoy the site - This evening I will try to put a Gallery Since I am not racing today. Engine in my NYG Neon is down for the count! I bent a valve stem and broke two Rocker Arms on my DOHC engine yesterday during qualify.

Any one have a spare 1996 DOHC Neon engine for sale??

I need to rebuild mine - but I guess I need to invest in a spare engine!

Does any know if they make a crate engine for 1996 DOHC?? I am calling my dealership in the morning!

Atleast I have plenty of time before my next race July 3rd & 4th in Savannah, GA!

Thanks everyone for welcoming me to DF - I am really enjoying reading all the different post and the feed back you can get!

Thanks!
Greg
