Default 2007 GP GXp vs. 09 Caddy CTS 4 AWD

So I was on the way to work this morning and pulled up next to my boss at a light. He's been talking smack for a while how he could destroy me. So we had a clearing in front of us for a few blocks. He got me off the line since his Caddy is AWD. I had a bad launch but pulled right up to him at 80. good stuff. I wanna see him from a 30 roll. It would be no match

Somebody jacked my trademarked username...

On topic, never ran a CTS before, I did beat an 09 STS and beat him twice, I forget which V8 they put in it.

only the CTS-V has the V8, the STS you can get with a 3.6V6 304hp or 4.6V8 Northstar 320hp.

I looked into it and was getting ready to argue lol. But hes right. with the edition of the XLR-V which is IMO a monstrosity.

I hate people with big mouths, but never knew a CTS could keep up http://www.dragtimes.com/Cadillac-CT...lip-20179.html

Kind of embarrassing for the V8.

Hopefully the "V" section here doesn't get involved like the TBSS guys.

Only the AWD CTS would kind of keep up only because they launch very nicely. My tires on the front are going bad and I made em worse. With new tires on there I wouldve gotten him. I hadnt raced from a dig in a while and had a **** poor launch. Took 2nd and 3rd to 5000 and pulled right up on him. Had we been on a road somewhere I wouldve left behind pretty good. Nontheless, he isnt talking **** anymore. Got my new F1 supercars today. going 255 all around. I hate these Potenzas
