Hi,
Ok, there's this orange Neon in my area that I see pretty much every now and then. It's somewhat riced up, or is it?

One day, my bro told me he saw this dude doing a smoke show in a plaza (it rained earlier and the roads were a bit moist).

Then a few days ago, I saw him taking a right turn to leave a plaza across my house, and I heard him peel his tires in 1st, and then I heard the peel again in 2nd.

Now, I dunno about you all but Neons are 2.0Ls making 132HP & 129LB/ft. (or 150HP & 131LB/ft. depending on model), and I don't think this is enough power to make it peel in 2nd. Or is it?

I think this guy either has a Turbo or some other poweradder setup. What do you all think?

Bye!
