Well, the nice thing with the SC is its more a driving pleasure car since the power is instantaneous with an SC, it feels like its got a bigger engine in it. Not to say the SS/SC is slow, because it isn't, but its just a fun car to drive all around.

The nice thing about the SRT-4 is that its made in the states and rivals most imports... Good to see that happening every now and again.

Hell, I STILL see a shitload of neons on the frigin road. I don't see SRT-4's that often but a tonne of Neons.

I meant being able to put it down...like launching. like if he goes to race a stock ss/sc and just spins and spins and spins...then his car may make a lot of power, but not be able to put it down.

I guess it's an opinion thing. I have a friend that used to have an SRT-4 than he would let me borrow every once and a while and that car was alot more fun to drive than my SS/SC.

I don't know how well the aftermarket will be for the SS/TC but the TC would seem to be better and it put's down more power but all of the rated times are a little slower than the NSRT-4.

I would rather have a NSRT-4 than my SS/SC but a SS/TC over a NSRT-4

I test drove a SS TC that I came close to getting... and I drove an SRT4 that my friend owns. Srt4 is better to me and it sounds nice... also drove an srt 8, nice.

I'm accually going to end up getting an srt 4 or 8... TC and the SC didn't do anything for me... ill hang on to my LS and just modify on it.

i would choose ss/tc any day but if it was a stock race, tock srt4 and stock ss/tc i believe it could be a good head to head race, driver error determines the win, especially with no lift hift feature, us, the ss owners, have somewhat of an advantage
