You hear wrong. The chassis is identical! Actually, I think the extra weight of the SVT package makes the extra top-end a moot point. In STS the springs/swaybars mean jack because you're replacing them anyway. I'm convinced that the non-SVT is the way to go for (STS, at least) autocross - ever seen an SVT well under 3000lbs with driver and fuel?

Maybe because there's nothing on the street dumb enough to push it as hard as you? If you actually did some sort of driving off public roads you know that the driving a car at the limit is a very different thing than ANY sort of hard cornering on the street.


Finally, learn to spell. You've been cluttering up CEG with your lousy posts for a while, but I didn't say anything until you started spouting off stuff "you heard" without basis and talking about street racing. Read the rules, and consider yourself warned. CEG doesn't take kindly to people doing stupid things on the street in thier cars, and you sure as heck aren't going to talk about it in this forum.
