I think the best SCCA SoloII ES Neon isn't a Neon at all! :)
Check out the specs:
Make Dodge Isuzu
Model Neon Spt Sdn Impulse/Stylus RS
Year 96 92-93
Weight (lb) 2456 2446
Wheelbase (in) 104.0 96.5
Width (in) 67.4 66.1
Engine 2.0l sohc L4 1.8l dohc L4
MaxPower 132 140
@ rpm 6000 6400
MaxTorque 129 120
@ rpm 5000 4600
wheel 14x6 15x6
Plus, the Sylus has a 16mm rear bar while the Neon
has none at all. The Sylus spring rates and gearing
also look OK. The Geo Storm has same general specs
with different suspension tuning (smaller rear bar, etc).
I've always wondered why I've never seen one of these
run. No camber? Overrated engine? Anybody ever
actually seen one of these at an autocross?
Have fun,

P.S. Isuzu info from http://www.isuzuperformance.com/isupage,
which is unbelievably complete!
