I will say this about the Neon spec class...it may be boring to watch,
but if you really want to know where you stand as a driver it's the best
place to go, IMO. It's not boring when your in the car, beleive me.
This is, after all, more of a participant sport than it is a spectator
sport, right? (In other words, who cares about how it looks.) :) I
learned more about my driving and about car set up in my two seasons of
"Neon Stock" then perhaps my entire AX career before that. This is why
I got a Neon, and on these counts it has been a full blown success.
"Spec Class" does not need to be a four letter word. Somebody,
somewhere is going to make me eat those words I know, but from this
perspective it's not all a bad thing.
