Hi, I'm Vinny...

Hi my name is Vinny, I'm from Cincinnati, OH, and I'm a Mopar addict.

Oh wait, this isnt a support group is it? :)


I think it's time for me to get another A-body. I've spent the last few years driving and racing Neons, and although I really like them I need something RWD. My current project has been a '97 neon ACR, but I've had some bad luck with it. I actually own a complete turbo setup for it (good for 13s), but I've had a bunch of unrelated problems with the car and it has been taking so long to complete, I figure if I am going to have a long-term project it should be with a car I like a little better. I was runner-up in the 2004 Mopar Nats Neon bracket in this car, and it's best 1/4-mile time was 14.84 @ 93mph with just basic bolt-ons.

I had a slant-6/auto '73 Plymouth Scamp as a teenager (I'm 28 now), and I always loved it. Ever since I got rid of it A-bodies have been basically my dream car.

I grew up around street/drag racing and Mopars, my Dad has an original '69 Hemi Road Runner and a restored and built 440/pushbutton '64 Fury. I attended my first Mopar Nats in 1988 at the ripe age of 10.

Sorry for the novel, but I very well might become a regular here.
