kids finally learning to respect cars the deserve respect?

well, maybe not "kids" persay....but here my story

I had time to kill today after getting new tires so I stopped by the local music and parked on the street, right in front of the door. So I go in and start playing my dream $1600, and as I'm sitting there in my own nirvana I see two of the store emplyees (on in his 20's and one older) standing in the doorway point and talking, and I just hear parts of what they are saying like "sekbrtvr racing ewfne sweet ods;vnr car weuor" and whatnot and I'm sitting there thinking "I parked behind a truk, and I know they arent talking about the truck" so I go and look, and they are talking about my bugeye that I just got an STi wing on :-D anyways, so I tell them its my car, and they ask about it, and I knew the younger guy was into street racing and I knew he had a car that he raced, but I fogot what kind, so I asked...and heres the clincher....he response was "SRT-4" that just made my day

lol SRT-4 owners are gettin such a bad rep haha. its true though, 90% of the SRT-4 owners i have ever spoken with either want to race or talk about street racing. If an SRT-4 owner gets beaten in a race, on the strip or the street they always say something like, "if i spent the same amount of money as you i would have won blah blah". if they beat you, they never let you hear the end of it. One time i got my *** handed to me by a modded SRT-4, the car was very fast and looked pretty nice. I never made any excuses when i got beat but the first thing he said to me was "how does it feel to get beaten by a neon?"

I guess I dont cry about getting beat by a neon cause my good friend has a low 12 one. Luckily he is one of the few people who dont give the car a bad name. He's, do I dare say, responsible?

I actually have no problem with the SRT4, other than the fact that it is a neon, I like the fact that it costs around $20k for a turbo 4 with 230hp. They're pretty quick stock, and can be cheaply modified to make them pretty f**cking fast!
