The 420a can be made to be a pretty quick motor. I've built several Neon's over the years. At last count i've owned 5 different 1st gen's. I've autocrossed them and drag raced them. My fastest 1st gen Neon was running 12.68's in the 1/4. My last R/T was all motor and running 14.2's in the 1/4, all with full interior, a/c, and p/s still hooked up.

Now that being said, I never would have even thought about challenging a bike with any of my cars. I have helped build a few 1st gen Neon's that were bike killers though. I've helped build several 400+ hp Neon's that would suprise a bike every now and then. How about a 575hp street legal 1st gen Neon. I saw that one take out a Busa from a roll

Here was my last R/T I built. She ran a 14.2, still got over 30mpg, and handled like a Vette on the autocross course...

The 420a can be made quick and I still like the 4g63 a lot, but neons are some of the ugliest cars ever made.

I actually thought the SRT4 was good-looking. But then you get inside and..........the only nice thing was the sport seats
