High-Mileage 2005 Cadillac CTS-V Hits the Dyno

High-Mileage 2005 Cadillac CTS-V Hits the Dyno

When my car hits 147,000 miles, the only thing I’ll do is cross my fingers that it lasts until 200,000. When a 2005 Cadillac CTS-V hit that mark, its owner, a man by the screen name of Hammar, decided to have some fun instead of worry. He went to the dyno. His well-traveled machine has […] More »

Drag Race: Stock ZR1 vs. a Modded Roush Stage 3 Mustang

I’m just going to put this down to weight and gearing.
