1/4 Mile ET & Modifications List

Based on some interest that several members have expressed, I'm going to start and maintain a list of 2009+ CTS-V's 1/4 mile stats and modifications. Hopefully I can get this stickied.

The updated list will always be in this first post (I'll update the linked .jpg offline), and will be sorted by 1/4 mile ET:



If you want to make a submission, please include the following:

1) An image of your Timeslip
2) The Density Altitude (DA). If you don't know it give me the track name, date and time of your run and I'll look it up
3) The Letter abbreviations of all the mods that were on your car for that run from the list above (if I missed any MAJOR ones, let me know).

Here's a sample:

DA - 906 Feet
Mods - A-B-C-I-L



I'll do my best to keep the list updated real-time, but at times it might take me a day or so to get your info incorporated into the list. This format always seemed to be the most popular on other sites I'm a member of.

Trainman, Not sure Famoso has the best starting line prep, but to help that ET a bit you can fit 19 by 11 inch [50mm offset] wheels on your Coupe. Nitto 345 or MT 305 fit nicely and should put you in the 11's with ease. Warm those tires up well and you'll see at least 1.65 60 foot times. Or, try the new Weld 17 inchers designed to clear your rear brakes and mount up some M&H 325 45 17 and lower the air pressure and cut a 1.5 60 foot time. Fun stuff these Caddies. Welcome aboard!

Pretty stout ET and MPH for 13 to 14 pounds boost. You didn't mention drag radials to go along with that 1.588 60 foot time. Must have been super density altitude as well. Just had a look at Atco conditions on 3-16-2013 3:25 PM. 34 degrees F and a DA of -1433 feet. That pretty much explains a lot, equates to about 11.00 flat and 125 MPH. About what I'm running with 14 pounds of boost. Well done, congrats on the great time.

Had a great day at the track yesterday for the first track outing of the year.

20kmh direct headwind and 3/4s tank of gas in the car. Density Altitude was 1917 feet. (Not ideal for setting a new best but still a blast) :)

Ran 12.07 at 117.88mph on a 1.92 sixty as the best pass. Here's a vid of the very first run... (12.12 at 117.80mph on a 1.90 sixty)



Cheers
Chris

Hi Guys, I'm a newbie. (12) CTS-V Wagon All stock trim zero modes.. Not to impressive compared to others on this site. I was at Milan Michigan on a 72 degree day, sorry didn't get the DA. Automatic
60' 1.9741
1320' 12.7622
MPH: 111.10
Made 5 passes, all very close but weird up shifts, break away in "sport" and will not go over 1200 RPM's on the starting line.

With same mods as before we bested our times. 8th mile 7.01 @ 99.99 mph and 10.90 @ 127.48 mph. 60ft 1.69
A-B-C-D-U Please post improvements. We now have an ice box and an SW full exhaust but have not run the car with these two additional upgrades.
We hope to get at least three to three and a half tenths from the two mods. Fingers are crossed..
I cant seem to upload the scan. Any help would be great.
This was at Bradenton Motorsports Park

I have a new lap top with widows 8 and can't figure out how to change the size of my scan to put me higher on the list. can I email it and have you correct the size so I can show off my 10.90. I know it's not the fastest but we really worked very hard to get into the 10's and just wanted to see the car on the list with that number. I'm sure u can understand.

Please update the 09+ CTS-V Drag Times & Mods Charts with the following data:

User Name: B T Williams
DA(Feet) : -146
60 ft.: 1.735
1/8th ET: 7.582
1/8th MPH: 94.32
1/4 ET: 11.720
1/4 MPH: 119.74
Dyno:
Mods: A-Bone Stock

Time slips for runs made on Jan 18, 2014 at Bradenton Motorsports Park in Florida follow. Run referenced above is last of the four runs. My highest MPH (120.78) occurred on 1st run. My apologies for the abbreviated time slips. That is all I was given.

Thanks.
