Yes that is correct, my $50,000 2000 Boxster S was smoked by a $23,000 Dodge Neon. Not any Neon obviously, a SRT-4 roughly 232 HP to the wheels STOCK. He had an upgraded exhaust, intercooler, and intake at the least I could tell visually.

I am upset at this, however in the context I should have lost. We started at 60 MPH and I let off at 120MPH 5 car lengths BEHIND in a straight line. Had we started at a stop light or had some turns I could have took him.

Next Step, on to Hergesheimer Motorsports in Lake Forest for my RevoTECHNIC chip upgrade and thinking about removing my muffler with some straight pipe 2 inch out the back or whatever is smaller (stock).

Just thought to share the story and have fun. :ah:
