Oh yeah, I got your general points, I agree on them! May be less racing trickle down, I just don't think UCI rules really affect what manufacturers make, at least at the sub $5k or so price point.

And yeah, Neons make sweet little race cars. I'm in the market for a new AutoX/HPDE/track day car, if I wasn't set on a torquey RWD to learn and bolster my driving credentials at work, an SRT would definitely be on my list of ones to look for
