Exact solutions are obtained for a massive fluid sphere under the extreme causality condition (dP/d-rho) = 1. It is found that these structures are pulsationally stable for a surface to central density ratio greater than 0.30. Taking the surface density as 2 x 10 to the 14th g/cu cm, the maximum mass of the resulting neutron star is 4.8 solar masses and the size is 20.1 km. The maximum surface redshift for a pulsationally stable structure is 0.75; the corresponding central redshift is 3.40. These structures are gravitationally bound and have a maximum binding energy per unit rest mass of 0.25 at a surface to central density ratio of about 0.40. The differential drag and moment of inertia of a neutron star based on this model are shown. The mass of the Crab pulsar based on this extreme relativistic equation of state is 0.4, 0.5, or 2 solar masses for the three different mechanisms of energy loss which are considered.
