Took down a CTS V

Posted By: pzh0bm On: 03-11-2010 @ 09:00:21         Reply | Edit
I was heading down the Dulles Greenway and there was a CTS V in front of me. So I catch up with him and we are in some traffic and he punches it and clears some traffic so I get through the traffic and catch back up with him and I get on his left side. We are running about 75 to 80 MPH and were side by side and I punch it a little to see if he is game. I am beside him and were doing 80 MPH now and he punches it and I punch it. I pull about a half car on him and we get up to about 130 and we are coming up on traffic so I start to let out of it and he takes a on ramp onto the Toll road and comes around the cars in his lane and cuts in front of them and then he gets out of it after I let out of it. So all in all I pulled a half car on the CTS V from 80 to 130 MPH. In my younger days I would have stayed in it until one of us crashed or killed someone. But with me getting older I start to think a little. It was a good time. Would have liked to raced him from a slower speed to see what my car really has but I will find out this Sunday at Mason Dixon with Eddie.

I know this is an old post, but what mods do you have done to your car, or is it stock?

I have a CTS-V, and it loves to run in the high speed ranges. Raced a couple of stock LS1 (friends) and they were all good races.

The CTS-V's are all 6 speeds, so you never know how good the other driver was.

Good Kill though, but be careful racing in traffic.

Good kill, but it sounds like the other guy is a tool trying to continue the race after you've hit traffic.

I just have the standard bolt ons. Hyper Tech and the reason I think I got the half car jump on him was because I started off in a lower gear. I started off in 4th gear and my guess he started off in 5th gear. Don't know for sure.

I have CAI, 160 degree stat, SLP Lid, smooth bellows, K&N air filter, Hyper Tech programmer and flowmaster muffler. Some mods I did some where bought that way.
