Did it out do that new cadillac that set the record not long ago?

Nice, I went to look at one two weeks ago, but decided not to buy it.

2009 Cadillac CTS-V has run a 7:59.32

Sounds like a pretty sweet machine

nissan gt-r set the pace a few weeks ago, nice to see the zr1 step it up a notch- with leaf springs!!!!!!!

where's jeremy clarkson and his acerbic wit now! hah!!!1

Wow they are already available in Florida?

If you don't mind me asking, what made you decide against it?

1 word: BRAKES

holy mother of crap. check out 1:05 - 1:19. He's going downhill, over a slightly bumpy track, gets to 170mph, STANDS on the brakes down to 118 do a sweeping turn on approach to a hairpin then on the brakes HARD to 85mph. My knuckles are white just from watching it.

I had my '02 Z06 at the track 2 sundays ago.. this was insane.. my driving sucks! lol

Oh and he almost loses it compeltel and dies at 1:38, goes from 165 down to 120.. then the back end gets lose on him. Believe me.. even at 80mph.. the feeling of the back end kicking out on you is fucking scary..

ceramic brakes too!

well you know a vette is tail happy :)
