Thanks, I'm a 3X SRT Flunkie. I have had 2 SRT-4s previous to the SRT-6. Before that I had 3 RX-7s, an '87 Grand National too. I'm into pretty much anything with BOOST!

Street Legal is relative. I'm talking about cars that are driven on the street that have tags and insurance. I didn't say they would pass inspection;) Besides, who said 9s? I though we were comparing it to a HIGH 10 Second(11 Second) car. Low 11 Second SRT-4 are not rare.

Hell, the fastest SRT-4(Red Sled) in the country is tagged, inspected and insured and makes brief trips to the store. It runs 9.40s @ 150+ with mostly stock interior. He's hoping for 8s this year. Come see him at MIR this year.

Street driven SRT-4 that run in the 10s aren't that rare anymore either.

Grand Nationals are just nasty, everyone knows what you can do with one of those.

Welcome. How does that SRT ride on the streets? I debated on getting one but every review I read said the thing felt like it didn't have shocks. Nice numbers in the quarter though.

Well, I guess that depends on what you consider a rough ride. It rides about as well as my old SRT-4 with Coilovers, but with better rebound comfort. My S2000 Rides smoother and handles better. Overall it isn't bad at all unless the pavement is bad. I drove it to Greensboro 2 weeks ago and I was ready to get out of it after the 4 hour trip.

For what the car is, I think it rides just fine. You don't buy a high performance vehicle because it rides like a Caddy. The 35 Series tires are probably the biggest contributor to the semi Harsh ride. Nothing upsets the cars balance, so it's very well setup for handling. Hitting a pothole in the middle of a hard 75 MPH sweeping curve doesn't faze it.

I'll happy to provide test rides the next time I come up.
