============================
2350# Neons?  What are these Neon drivers doing?  Are they using the new and
improved Huck and CHuck anti-ballast device?  It looks like lead plate but
it's not.

I thought even the stripped (basically) ACRs weighed in right at 2500
pounds.  Am I way off base here?

But, in defense of the 240SX cars, aren't they also rear wheel drive?  That
"should" make up for some of the difference.  Right?

Just call me puzzled.

See you on course.
