You ought to bring the car out with the XLR-V and see what times and trap speeds you can get with these modifications.

An honest assessment guys ? It's needs to be edited down a bit, most of the fluff removed and concentrate on showing the vehicle's performance factors. Although I watched all of yours, usually if I see videos that's supposed to be showing off a car and they add in a bunch of extra crap, I simply stop it and move on. Concentrate on what makes the product stand out above the norm and leave the Hollywood to Hollywood.

That car has 500+ lbs on the XLR-V / CTS-V.

Re: Floats like a Cadillac, Stings Like A V?

With all due respect, that video did nothing for me. I like the beginning with the music introducing the car, but after that you need to sweet sounds of the blower and the exhaust, not that cheesy music. How about showing the car taking a corner or two rather than just a drive by. Even just a full launch with acutal sounds would have been sweet to see.

My opinion.

Power slides and smoky burnouts look good in videos too....

Not sure I understand your point C. I was just curious to see what the trap speeds and times would be with this package. I am not trying to compare it to the other cars, The only reason I threw in the "take it with the XLR-V" is because I thought it would be a good time to run it since they would already be out there with our other V brethren.

I apologize if that came of harsh, it wasn't meant to be that way.
