CTS-V Challenge - um, yeah. CTS-V's kick butt
The results of yesterday's CTS-V challenge are out and, as you might expect, the CTS-V cleaned up on Monticello's 3+ mile track. Taking 1st-3rd and 5th-7th and 10th places - the V's acquitted themselves quite well. The best challenger was a BMW M3 in the 4th spot. 8th was filled with what many consider the V's closest competitor, the BMW M5. The M5 with it's 500hp was fewer than 3 seconds ahead of the 9th place Mitsubishi Evolution. 11th-12th were brought up by the Jaguar XF (note, Jaguar was supposed to supply an XF-R for the competition but felt that its brakes were not up to the task of competitive laps and backed out at the last minute) and the Audi RS4.
