I am curious though as to how accurate the dashawk is. I have not been able to find any independent reviews on it.
Anyone?

good question. Don't know..but can't wait to find out cause of the 1/4 times I am seeing. There are a few posts on the charger and LX forums that claim a high degree of accuracy relative to track times, but who knows. I am not seeing too many dashhawk times in the low 4s.
Best time: 4.32
best time with esp on: 5.01
best time with autostick: 4.75

When the 05 "C" was first released, Car & Driver Magazine tested a stock 300 posting 5.3. Some people wonder if that car was programed by Chrysler a little different than regular cars sold by dealers for better numbers.
SRT-8/BMW, WOW!
If that 0-60 run is anywhere near serious, you're hunting stock SRT-8's and winning! That is insane!
I suddenly have a very strong urge to add an aftermarket cam to my shopping list...
I know--its crazy. I am hitting 4.4-4.7 consistently, and you should see the 1/4 times I am getting. (NOT TRACK--I know, and who knows if the road I am on is level, but I have done it on 5 different roads and get consistent times). I am waiting to get her to the track when it is a bit cooler.
Here is what has me very curious..I was so sure the speedo was set wrong after the mods- -my brother and I took her oout on the freeway to measure speedo, with him in my STS-V. It was right on the money- so then we ran them against each other. When I used to have a stock SRT-8, it ran even with My Caddy (started behind in a dig and caught up in top end). This C I have now spanked it pretty good...couldn't fricken believe it. And that was from a dig OR roll... check out the thread below
Sounds like he USED to have a SRT-8, and he now has a 5.7L C pulling these numbers. Very cool.
correct! And as I said, I was/am skeptical too, except the 300C handled the STS-V, where the srt8 just hung with it. only the track will tell, but hear is a recent 1/4 mile run with the dashhawk:
