May 15, 200817 yr The video can be seen at Autoblog.com. John makes a lap of the Ring look easy. Please note the car is very smooth little drama in the tough corners. The car is very quiet for a at speed lap. The car is stock less the safety equipment. John hits On Star at one point. Finally please note this was an automatic not a standard shift car. So could the the standard shifter be faster yet?
May 15, 200817 yr Yes, I watched it earlier today and just sent the link to blu. Damn that car makes me drool!
May 15, 200817 yr Finally please note this was an automatic not a standard shift car. So could the the standard shifter be faster yet? Most likely not really. I think on a 'Ring like that, with such high average speeds, a manual probably loses some of it's inherent speed advantages. Plus, I'm assuming GM has REALLY dialed in the 6-speed auto for this application....... This is AWESOME......and I'll be selling them at the Caddy store in Las Vegas that I'm moving to!!!!! I just wish I could anticipate making enough money to get one when the CTS lease is up....but I don't know if I'll be doing THAT good.....<ugh>
