In my opinion, the concern about weight in regards to handling was answered by Pedders in their big post here:

I do believe on the 5th gen it will be much easier for GM to add power to equal out or beat the Stang in power-to-weight.

And I definitely didn't want to come off as saying the SS couldn't handle or the weight alone keeps it from being able to handle.

I am sure Chevy is working on a "track pack" as we speak.
