          I'm sure it's going to be a lot faster than that when it's on the street. The guys at R&T seriously blow ass at driving.

          Hell, as much as I love Chevy, I gotta hand it to Ford. At least they've got the balls to build something decent. Sorry Chevy, having an SS model for nearly everything in your stable doesn't excite me when all but the Corvette is wrong wheel drive or a pig of a pickup or SUV. SCREW THAT NOISE!

            The car is fat, but should be able to put out better 1/4 mile times even with mediocre drivers. Overrated and blown up HP numbers if you ask me.

              "Full throttle is imposible in 1st gear, almost always resulting in unwanted wheelspin"

              um, duh. i wouldn't judge it by what they say, but i'd like to see a pro drive it and see the results.

                put on stickies, disable torque management, let 'er fly. I'm betting you will cut off more than 1 second in 1/4 mile with no other changes.

                    112mph is a mid 12 easy. Needs TRACTION! Still cool as hell car , but not so sure its worth the $$$.

                    Buy a stocker for $25G's or less used throw Another $10g's at it and HANG ON!

                        So you're saying 11's with JUST tires and no trq management?

                          i wonder if they'll come out with a convertible version of this car, if so it could end up a collectible.

                          i'll wait a few years when the price drops quite a bit.
