Explain to me this though. How is having a part that doesn't move, and that is not exposed to extreme temperatures, where does durability and interestingly enough safety enter into the equation? I'm not flaming, but serisously explain your logic. Another thing, what kind of times are you pulling in the 1/4? And don't say street racing. IMO street racing is nothing. There's no way to prove anything. The only proof in my eyes is a time slip (well maybe a dash mounted video camera but who's taking notes?)

I do not waste my money or time taking my car to a track. It is slow and i realize that, but it is still MUCH better than any neon i have raced.
I would assume that under hood temperatures are extreme temperatures that can melt cheap plastic.
I have raced 2 5-spd neons on an abandoned industrial street, from a dead stop and have beaten both badly.
