C32 vs Cadillac XLR

I thought these cars were a little quicker, but then it wasn't an XLR-V. It was your basic at-the-stoplight moment, and the old guy behind the wheel was ready to run 'em. I wasn't really expecting him to want a race so he got the jump.

I still walked away with the AC on and no brake torque whatsoever. He had a look of surprise that a lowly C-class would blow past, but he was a good sport about it.

Wish it had been an XLR-V - that would have been more interesting.

The regular XLR runs low to mid 14's. The V runs high 12's to low 13's.

Properly broken in V's are turning consistent 12.6's at the track.
