I believe the most impressive thing in what I've seen and heard so far about the SRT is the handling. The email I received from DC states performance targets that include 1.15G lateral acceleration. Not that I've researched this, but that's the best I can think of from a production car. Is there anything with a better G than that? I dunno. I would think that with 60-0 breaking in less than 100 feet (is that possible, is there anything better than that?) and 1.15G handling, and of course the 500 ponies, this thing may really set a new track standard.

Dont believe it for a second, 1.15 G's is an unbelievable number. No other exotic car builder has been able to replicate this number with street tires. Lets see what magazines actualy get out of the car, but if it is anywhere near that claim it will be amazing.

Don't confuse performance "targets" with performance "specifications".

That said, I've spoken with Herb Helbig before and I can assure you he takes performance VERY seriously. So, I personally wouldn't be surprised to see him pull it off.
