Really?? I'm not convinced. At the 1999 Natioanls, Mark Daddio was about 2.9 seconds off of the DSP winning X1/9. I know 2.9 seconds is alot, but I'd bet most or all of that time could be made up wit

Yeah but, as has been pointed out by many others, Mark ain't really human. I think he's Borg. What he can do, few others are able to duplicate. So, for a "normal" earthling, you'd better add 2 second

Also, I think the X1/9s in SP trim weigh in at around 1900 lbs. I've heard that stock Nons are 1300 - 1400 lbs. Shed a hundred or so pounds with SP mods woul but you at 1200 - 1300 lbs. I would be su

Ok for Daddio maybe, but us mere mortals? GRM tried it with a light sedan body a couple of years ago. Admittedly, they were trying to break into CSP, but it was not even close. I have doubts that it

Wasn't Dadio 2 seconds ahead of all the other neons? That's 5 seconds for a good driver and more for someone like me. Mark (wasn't there a guy in the Atlanta-ish area building an SP neon? Posted to

There's more to it that just weight and power #s on paper. The Fiats are a LOT smaller and have a much lower center of gravity. Not to mention RWD to help out with the occasional throttle steering. 1

I agree with Eric - you can't jusge a car's performance potential by power/weight numbers. But In this case we know that the Neon must make up lost cornering speed with acceleration. So, if we use a

The X1/9 is dominating DSP because of a combination of things, mainly the car is lightweight and mid-engined, and Steve Hoelscher drives the wheels off of his car! He gets everything out of his car a

I agree. In fact I'll go out on a bit of a limb and predict that the GSR is actually the class sleeper. Furthermore, since there's a gigantic Honda aftermarket, sorting the car out shouldn't be that
