Depends on what you mean by "slow". My car could not keep up with Curt's R-Gruppe 3.6 car when he stepped on it...nor with Sherwood's 2.7 (?). But it is smooth as silk at 110, and the rear end squats nicely when it climbs above about 3.5K. It doesn't have snap-your-neck-back torque, but plants in the twisties just fine.
Besides, how many tickets do you need?
