C32 vs CTS-V, W209 CLK55

Couple of nights ago, raced a W209 CLK55. It was black, looked really nice. Raced from a roll a couple of times, pulled about a car each time. Each time was about 30 mph to about 85 or 90. Sounded really nice. Probably bone stock. Really nice guy too. Stopped and chatted for a little bit.

Then last night, raced a black Cadillac CTS-V from a roll and from a dig. From a roll, i pulled about 3/4 to a car going from about 20 to 90. From a dig, I pulled about about a car to a car and a half. He didnt launch very well and lost some traction. I did a light launch....i would call it more of an extremely slow rolling start, probably from about 3 and then lightly accelerating until i know when i will get traction when i hit it. I dont think the guy was shifting very well as he seemed to lose a little too much ground than i expected, though i havent raced a V since i've been stock. I slowed at 80 or so to give him the thumbs up but he did a ricer flyby followed by the flashing of his blinkers.....what a sore loser.

I used to have the Evo ODPS... u

I missed the extra power on my C32.

CTS-V traps higher than a stock C32.. therefore the pullies really helped you.


I would add the IC HE before summer.. it will be a nice addition to your set up.

yah, it would have been different without the evosport ODPS. im working on installing the IC HE asap.....ive been extremely busy, and the tucson/phoenix summers are a real killer, so it is definitely a priority
