Probably because...
"This is pissing me off... I buy a SUV sticker at $40,000 dollars...395hp and I have to sweat a stock $22,000 dollar 230hp srt-4. I don't mind the WRX as much at least thats a $30K to $35K car,with 300hp. I know the horse power to weight is the issue...but dammm a SRT-4. WTF....!!!!!!!! We are talking from a stand still right???or a roll????"
The idiot claims to know what HP to weight ratio is, but is still confused as to why the SRT-4 will kick their POS Chubbrolet's ass.
"Moore has also accused the American people of being the stupidest, most naive people on the face of the Earth. And after last weekend, he's got the box office numbers to prove it!"

From anything other than a Dig, the SRT-4 will easily handle the TB SS. Its all in the launch for those things. Same with the Silverado SS. I tried to compare acceleration capablities with one in the rain, forget it. The CSVT traps a lot faster, but it sure can't outlaunch it. In the wet, it was hopeless.

Maybe because those guys are calling a CSVT an "import"?
'98 Contour SVT - Please pardon our dust, under heavy construction.

Wow! Those people really are missing the piont of the TBSS. It's a $30k SUV with go fast parts, not a $10k compact w/ go fast parts. Let them abide in their ignorance. Regardless, I'd rather have an SRT8 JGC.

Well they are not completely full of it. They run the quarter in 14.4 and o-60 in something like 6.3. Not bad for a big truck. Linky We really seem to get spanked by everything these days.

Hardly anyone I've talked to knows that... They usually assume I'm a ricer and just bought the SVT badge.

Hmm. I like the stats and reviews on the SS. Perhaps the wife and I will have to swing through the Chevrolet dealer when were out shopping for an SUV.
