Hi, my name is Blaise. I drive a 1996 base model sohc neon sedan. It's a real racecar, as you can see:

It's no LS1, but at least it's not a Spec-V, right? :finga:

Hopefully I'll come to find that I've already met a lot of people on the site, and more as time goes on :partyman:

This is my friend, Blaise. He's nice to you if you drive a Neon, if not, he's a dick. Don't take offense, he's nicer in person. If I hadn't met him at Atco, I'd have a bone stock SOHC Neon. Instead we raided a junkyard and I got a larger throttle body and a caravan V6 intake. My Neon is teh fastar now. :D

I did autocross fairly seriously, but only before I moved here to Philly. I go dragracing on Fridays at Atco or Cecil, and will start doing HPDE (non-timed track days this spring).

I'll leave the Rallying to Jim ;)

What it needs is a real engine. I'm tired of losing to near-stock WRXs :(

Only at the track, I don't race on the street, although I doubt I could insitigate a race with a WRX without just getting laughed at.

I wish there were WRXs that existed without upgraded ECUs and 3" TBEs :(

I've been hiding under my bed.

Nah, I've been sick / busy trying to improve my life. I took two US post office exams down in philly last week on Th and Fr for technical positions. I've been getting a lot of job leads, so I've been trying to pursue them. Also, I went and got a g/f who takes up a bit of my time. :D

Your neon sucks. How many times have you changed the headgasket in the last week? Hmm? :lol:

Seriously, I just make fun of cars in general. It's all in good fun, just laugh it off.

Spec Vs - You're still in the 15s?
WRXs - Broken Trans, again?
SRT4s - But I'll win from a roll!
And so on... :mrgreen:

yeah ive been raped up in school for about 3 months thats why i was busy enough not to answer your calls, but im pretty much on easy street now so we should meet up and get some beers

04-05-2005, 04:04 AM
hey, i've met you before through jim. i gotta ask though, do you think you'd beat a stock WRX? its totally possible depending on how much you've done to your car, but you didnt imply that you've done much. there's either something up with your car, or something up with your head if you're talking about taking WRXs and SRT-4s down... :mrgreen:

This little pos neon is a quick little turd.

Blaise..we still race this summer sometime. Your neon is going down.


Any for all that matters..I would take my Spec-V over any neon (including an SRT4) anyday.

Awesome! I'll be at Atco either this friday or the next, I have some issues to sort out first, but be assured, I will not go down without a fight! :supz:

Are you more or less likely to blow your trans if you're racing in reverse? :finga:

I was referring to Trans Case Flex, not breaking gears.

Either way, I'd never hope that somebody would blow their trans, it's never fun, I was just poking at ya ;)

Gimme 2500 bucks, a video camera, and like 5 minutes and I can blow a hole through my bellhousing without neutral drops.

I'll give you a torch and watch you make holes your body panels. :finga:

Wait, do you really drive a saturn? It's time to celebrate, I am not the slowest car on the site! :rolleyes:

There's like 4 saturns on the board.

Granted I'm also the best sounding one, but the only autotragic and I have a burnt valve body.

I'll still race you. I'll race anything. I've raced modded WS6's. I don't expect to win any races.

Hell, I'll even race a WRX from a dig. I don't care. I know my car is slow, but lets go from a 40 and we'll see who's truly slow, mmmmk?

Blaise
04-05-2005, 04:17 PM
I know my car is slow, but lets go from a 40 and we'll see who's truly slow, mmmmk?

Sure. Can I use 2nd gear or should I use 4th to make it fair?

I'm the same way though, I'll race anything. I raced a z28 at the track last friday for fun. Poor guy missed the light and the launch so bad I almost beat him :lol:

It's funny you should mention that, because the automatics are dogs due to the THREE SPEED TRANSMISSION!!! The MTs are five speeds, and therefor far less slow.

I'm well aware of the differences of the neon transmission, and also his +200lbs extra on his car, and his +7hp against my engine. I drive a saturn. I make it a habit to know the other slow cars.

Then you should know that you'd have no chance in hell from a 40mph roll. Or a 10mph roll. Or in reverse.

Even if I had 3 fat chicks in my car. :banana:

And why is this? Your .3 extra CR isn't going to make you fly away like a demon. Pitting a 4spd auto vs a 5spd manual is a deathtrap in the first place, but +200lbs and only a +7 extra stock in base power isn't going to make you smoke me. Walk, sure, but get your head out of your ass before someone shows you up.

*edit*
You can keep bullsh!tting all you want, but your posts are just becoming more and more like a little kid. The battle of the slow is a bad one to watch.

A lot of people might show me up, but your saturn isn't going to.

Tell you what, I'll run you heads up for $20 when we meet at Atco.

If my saturn were mated to a manual, it sure as hell would show you up, but it's not.

And if I go to atco again, you can be sure that I'll die at the stage. As I've said, my transmission is on it's way out, and I don't have the rest of the parts ready to change it over to the manual in my garage.

Except I can change mine out without doing any modification to my car. Just that I don't have the clutch, flywheel, or the LSD that I want to put in.

Come on Jim, you should know this...

Torque Converters rob a lot of power. MT's don't have a torque converter, so more power to the wheels.

Then you look at gearing. AT's are typically taller to account for less gears.

I'll take that bet, assuming that is really your moms and therefor stock.

SilverTurboRidin will race you in his mom's SRT-4.

That's not stock, but it's really his moms.
