You need to check the roll on times, top gear, 60 to 80.
GTS has one of the lowest 60 to 80 time of anyone. besides it's turning
a lot more RPM at the same speed than the ST, so it's in a better
part of the power band.
A buddy of mine has my copy of the mag. with the comparison between the two,
so I can't quote the times, but it's no contest... :>)
MPG, one gets 1 better than me, I get 1 better than the other.
