Okay, I'm missing something ...
I remember from when the Neon ACR first hit the streets that one of the
ACR features, and probably a huge advantage for autocross, was lower
gearing than the other Neons.
Am I wrong? It's possible. If that was true back then, what's the
status now? Do all Neons still have the same gears?
