Nice runs! THought you were gonna do the CTSv versus a 408 car but the GTO somehow seemed to handle it.... speaking of which, am I the only one surprised the GTO hung with that CTSv so well???

Stock auto V2s put down something like 460-470rwhp. Its a heavier car then the GTO... and GTO put down something like ~450rwhp, so made sense.

That is a bit extreme. I just toss stuff together, there are WAYYYY better videos out there, and plenty on this site. And those don't have the same old cars over and over.

Idk why but those 408 cars seem really weak for the CI, they run like H/C cars.

Those V's are about 500 lbs heavier than the GTO's. The older ones tend to be in the 445-460 range through the auto and I hear the newer ones make more, but I have no experience other than what I've read.
