I had an approx 1.5 hour interstate ride home so I decided on a long clear strech to give it the spurs......it is AMAZING how quickly 150 sneaks up on you, talk about super stable as well! Thankfully, the car was the Michellin Pilot Sport tires. I do have a few questions.....
1) Is it a design element that in autostick mode, the tranny will upshift super slow at times. I noticed when I was on it and upshifted manually, the car would sometimes rev another 1K or so rpms past my shift point. Is this normal?
2) Does the car generate alot of heat into the cabin? I noticed it got hot quick in there unless I had the A/C on pretty much constantly.
I'll post up some pics after I do a methodical detail this weekend!!!
That's a pretty good deal, probably the best I've seen as far as price & milage. As far as the speeds sneaking up on you, the SRT 6 is like the energizer bunny - it keeps going and going
.
1) In autostick mode they usually won't shift until you are at red line on the tach.
2) Never noticed a lot of heat
, you might check the two roller controls theat have the red & blue dots on them to make sure they are turned a the way down to the lowest blue dot. If you have already done that ,you may check some heater related fuses.
