E55 w/ goods, Z32 Project underway
I don't know why everyone is doubting your pull! With the mods that you have, it is very well possible to beat the CTS-V by 2 cars. IT's not some super natural vehicle. IT's a cadillac.

And for anyone thinking it was the older V, please, the old one was a cow, ate a few when my E was stock. Badly.

I think a E55 with a tune can beat a stock CTS-V. The modded V I ran runs for money so its in his favor not to go around telling people what he has under the hood. I'm still dying to catch a stock 1 and even went into the cadillac forums looking to run 1. I dont think they are insanely faster then our cars.

Stock for stock we are competitive with the M5, M6, CTS-V, XFR, etc... Obviously this is driver dependent and situational and it goes out the door when you start comparing a stock car to a modded one.

2005 Silver E55
just watched the car and driver video head to head CTS-V and E63 and on the 0-60 and 1/4 they were with in .1 sec of each other thats a drivers race. I was under the impression reading E55 is about the same as the E63 in the speed arena. 12.4 in the 1/4 and 0-60 4.2 -4.4 obviously traction is the big issue. just dump the Contis and you would have better traction. seem like a close race by the numbers .

Man, your car is very well Modded ! nice run
I wish I can race a stock CTS-V, stock vs stock to be fair.
E55 is out for 5 years earlier than the new CTS-V so its totally different generation and we can still compete with them. The only thing I know, my car is strong, running so strong that drives me crazy !!!
