Weight or handling has nothing to do with his perception of "more balanced" and neither would mine. I assume Clino means the combination of upgrades on the GT500 vs Stage 3 which its upgrades are geared for track performance as its primary purpose.
If that is the case I second his view.

Basically, what I'm saying is what edge of performance you may gain in the Roush, will be at the expense of overall comfort and reliability.

The Roush track testing is thorough and probably better than Ford's. Roush wants to ensure their products deliver what they promise, which is good. They have taken a few pages of the old SVT motto having a family atmosphere. That's a plus for customer confidence.

My money is on Roush Performance persuading the "user" to politely retreat and regroup.

That's exactly what I meant. I probably should have been more explicit. The 2010 GT500 is an amazing handling car, and also something that you can drive every day and be completely comfortable in, whereas the Stage 3 is much more focused on straight performance. I think it would also be fair to say that the GT500s setup has been more thoroughly tested for long term reliability than the Roush. I'm not saying that the Roush is going to fall apart or explode, but just that the reliability testing for a production car will most likely be more thorough than an aftermarket tuner.
