Default Re: SRT Chat HERE on May 14th!

First, thanks for building a great car! Background for question. We have seen that several new 08 Vipers have been crashed at the dealer, by new owners, etc. On this forum, someone suggested that perhaps it was possible to have a key/program that would cut performance for first, say 1,000 miles (break-in) or for use by new drivers. I have a supercharged jet ski and it has two keys, a "learner" and an "unlimited". While I fully appreciate Dodge can't make the Viper "idiot" proof, does the idea of two keys make sense? Is it feasible or too complicated in view of sophistication of engine management systems and emissions requirements?
Again, thanks for building a great car that I truly enjoy!
