I met him at SEMA and my bet would be he can really drive. M5 vs CTS-V is a classic match-up so hopefully you guys will be chosen.

Dave and I rolled back into Ann Arbor at about 3 a.m. after the track day. The GM engineers I spoke to gave lots of credit to the M5. They thought it was the only one, (along with the V, of course) that could go all day at the track right off the dealer's lot. I thought even though it was a GM biased day, we were surrounded by "car guys" and each had something good to say about all of the cars there. I'd like to own each one of them. For me, this time around the V was the choice for me. Doesn't mean I don't love the Bmers too. The different roars we heard goind down that back stretch were all very cool. I'm still not sure if I enjoyed the sound of the M5 or the caddy best. They were both awesome, in different ways. Hope all is well. your site is awesome. I'll be subscribing right after this goes out. Chris Kamil,

Take the pros out of the mix, and the BMW M3 won. My problem with this: the three drivers who won were all pros. Take the pros out of the mix, and the BMW M3 won.

Bob Lutz also said this morning that they're bringing in a test track driver to drive a second CTS-V, but he'll definitely drive one himself. He was pretty clear that *he* may not have the fastest lap... Bob Knox:

But, Bob was just a bit nervous about the quality of drivers out there. Tells me there's a genuine competition going on. Good luck!!!

Power is not what matters their, it is more about the cars abilitly to get into the corner, not off the corner. Thats why they changed the track to MMC, the CTSV has a much bigger advantage dur to its better power down grip and speed than the m5 The CTSV did not have an advantage at laguna.
