Because we sacrifice acceleration. If you wanna be bored goin in a straight line and gettin a 15 second thriil, get an American or Japaneese car and mod the hell out of it so you can only get 11 seconds on thrill. Crossfires are way too well engineered to be insulted by going in the same straight line again and again. You own a magnificent machine, use her for what she was made for and learn to track race and I promise you won't be asking "how can I improve?", you will be asking "where can i find a more challenging track?"
That is the truth! That is why I don't feel bad when running up against a Mustang GT or any other American muscle car. A couple second faster on a 0-60 but big deal. They may get that quick boost but they can never keep up on the highway. The Crossfire keeps up real well then I always blow past them and the Crossfire just keeps on accelerating while they have no power and have to slow down.
