Man, that Caddy CTS-V WC car is VERY nice. I spent many minutes there analyzing their front splitter attachments, rear wing attachments, cage structure, carbon fiber dash, driver safety nets, front fenders, you name it.

The "a-line" of that car has been lowered at least 2" compared to a CTS-V. The whole front cap must be a new piece because it's done VERY well. Funny thing is the promo sheets for it said the first 2 race cars started out as paint quality rejects from the CTS-V line. Yeh, right.

I REALLY liked that car.

I was at the auto show tonight for about 5 hours for a supplier day. My feet are tired. There were over 700 cars there and I know I saw them all. They had a C6 frame structure there with the engine and powertrain attached. That is a very nice frame. The windshield support structure is aluminum and had a custom made brushed type of finish almost like Pratt-Miller had done it themselves.
