My first impression about the R/T STP is it ride very similar to what my 2010 Camaro SS with my 1LE track pack did on the street. The weight is about the same and handling too (keep in mind I only street driven it 500miles) I sit bout an 1'' higher and power wise my butt dyno tells me it's down by 40hp but the 3.92 gearing (3.45 SS) makes up for it. It doesn't pull has hard in 3rd & 4th gear and the rpm cut off is 5700rpm, so shifts comes a lot quicker. 0-60mph needs 3 gears.

Like with our Competition mode the R/T has sport mode and it improves the performance of it, more throtle response and once you deactivate the Traction control COMPLETELY it's hard to pull out of first gear without roasting the rear wheels.
