Ok so compliments of the U.S. Army, I get a 2-month stay in the cloudy and rainy state of Washington. I do get a few days off here and there and it just so happens that I got 3 days off this weekend so I can attend the events in Packwood, WA. I don't know the area or their rules, nor do I have my car here, so I rented a car (tried for a Charger and got upgraded to a Cadillac DTS... hey it's a V8 RWD!) and will do my best to get there and fit in. Is anyone on this site from NWR and going this weekend that I could meet up with?
Also I'm assuming a DTS is F-stock, right? Anyone have advice for AXing a Cadillac? Thanks in advance, Andre |

The DTS is FWD. The STS, CTS, XLR, SRX are RWD. And the ESV, EXT, SRX are AWD. Cadillac is doing a hell of a job naming cars.
I own 3 DTS's, weigh about 4000lb, 300 hp to the front wheels. Traction control doesn't quite turn off, and you can't turn the Active Stability control off, but that is not too intrusive. Top speed is governed at 130, and it still pulls hard right up to it. Suspension is decent considering what it is. Car feels anso looks lighter, and shorter, smaller than what it is. It is a long car, tuning radius is huge. Transmission is interesting. It downshifts automaticaly when you take fast turns, even if you didn't hit the throttle. |
