I have previously rode in a SRT-10 in Colorado, but would like to see what they are like with closer to their rated power (that was from 5300ft-9000ft). Sorry about the long post directed to such a small group people but I don't know another way.
My name is Reid
My digits be: six-one-two eight-seven-five 9454
My brother and I both have GTSs. I will be pretty tied up the next few weeks, but could possibly give you a ride sometime. I don't really attend meets as my car doesn't quite fit in and I am usually fairly busy.

If you are talking about the blue/white one from TX, that thing still has a ways to go. I could make that kind of power with my car just with installing my head/cam setup. I have a blower, big fuel system, AEM and better rear end at home. Just haven't had the time or the need to install them yet.

With the small turbos on that car, it should still be able to put down 900 whp when the bugs are worked out and it is tuned properly.

I think it is just as comfortable as my E55. Driving to MAM last year, I drove 4 hrs and needed to change cars with my brother because the VW EOS he was driving was too uncomfortable. I could have diven the whole 6hrs without a problem. No issues driving it back from Chicago either.

They still aren't enough to get the car to stick for me in some of the turns at BIR. Almost hit a wall last time at BIR even with the slicks on it.

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.
