I think races like the GT500 vs. CTS-V A6 will be quite common in the real world. In fact I would say that in a race with even a potential Z28 M6, GT500 and CTS-V A6 that the CTS will pull out a lead on two traction deprived beasts while they struggle to catch up. The good news is the A6 will likely be a Z28 option too. Driver mod notwithstanding.

The GT500 vs. CTS-V is classic Drag Racing 101. I'll trade 2-3 mph on the trap speed for a tenth on the 60ft everytime. It's why dyno queens don't rule the track.
