Maybe some letters to get the non-turbo Neon moved to HS would be appropriate.

Here's a good clip of a DSP Neon doing its thing.

I think it is the ACR models that drag all the Neons in G stock... Even a base 95 SOHC with sways and R comps is a ~140hp
~2300lb car, plus you are allowed to use camber bolts. So should that be in H-stock?
My car has AC and automatic which adds more weight to the front and 140lb/in front springs vs. 150lb/in in the base model and ACR so its at a bit of a disadvantage in G stock... I just have the wrong model for solo but it still does OK, I'm going to dump the non-functioning AC soon which will help a bit and I'm getting better too so it could get me a couple places up the ranks after paxing.
I'm tempted to pull the trigger on new R-comps but no one else runs new ones so it would kind of be "cheating" at our low budget club.
