Some of you guys are just too negative. The glass is actually half full. The delay between first and second gear at WOT in my SRT8 is sooo long, I now see it more as a feature than a problem. It gives me time to make final adjustments on my seat and mirrors, check Sirius for the day's news, weather and sports, and get a good start on a cup of coffee and a sandwich. If it shifted too crisply I would have to pay more attention to my driving.

I agree with Moose, and several others here, that you can get the timing down with practice, but I've never driven any other car where you hit the shifter at 5400 RPMs so the tranny will shift 850 RPMs higher. It is odd, but workable.
