the srt is faster by a few tenths...that is about it....

I could race a stick civic and beat a manual challenger if the driver spins too much and cant shift..
Huh? That's truly astounding! Why wasn't this posted before now?
I thought I'd get a decent meausure of performance for the $44K I laid down for my SRT8. Guess I was really wrong, eh?
I should see what I can get for my '09 6 speed Challenger SRT8 as a trade in on a new R/T and a 2 yr old Civic. That way I could have 2 cars that - with just a little modding and crisp shifting - could beat the overrated SRT8!
Then again, maybe I should put more thought into this than I did when I just ran out and ordered the SRT8 - after many months of comparing engines, transmissions/gearing, suspensions, standard equipment, and careful consideration of options.
I wonder if the same statements are made of Shelby's by GT owners on the F*#^ boards?
