Default RE: MY RACE VS A CADILLAC CTS

The first model year of the CTS was '03. They ALL have the same body style, only one generation so far. They only have V6 engines and RWD unless it is the CTS-V which first had the LS6 from the C5 Z06 Corvette with 405 HP and still RWD. They might be getting the newer supercharged Cadillac engine now, I'm not sure.

And the A4 is not much different then the GTO in skidpad/slalom ratings. And remember, on dry pavement AWD is slower then RWD (assuming all other attributes are equal.) And it would take any Audi less then a modded (even if only slightly) S4 in a straight line. And thats with the LS1 or LS2, they both run 13's stock.

I did read thank you. I didn't see any of that specifically stated so I thought I'd provide some information to those who obviously don't know.

okay..a buddy helped me look up the bodystyles, and apparently it was an STS- mid 90's. I guess they're a LT1 v8 275 hp, or a northstar 4.9L v8. So..looking up the CTS I know it wasn't that new..it was the mid 90's bodystyle, and that's the available engines..so it appears I did beat a v8..hmm.

It's cool kextyn..I did originally think it was a CTS because I could've sworn he had the CTS badge on, but it was the STS bodystyle. Anyway that's where I quoted/corrected myself that it was the STS.

umm going over 120 on public roads is not such a good thing, the roads are not built to handle that much speed, they are not smooth like tracks are so the smallest bumps my seem like nothing at 60 but at 120 they can kill u, knowing a guy who effed up his s4 going way to fast, just race on the track and save ur car
