[QUOTE="tt335ci03cobra, post: 15144632, member: 68944"] The cts-v also has less down force and drag coefficient. It's more slippery. It's the same reason why Mercedes saloons perform quite well as speeds rise, inspite of their power to weight. A 650~hp stock amg s class does like 207mph, but a 650hp z06 does 190 because the aero and downforce are completely different. A gt350 will hold a corner much better at 150 than a cts-v for the exact same reasons it's going to lose a race to 160 with one. Gt350's have gearing and aero to hit hard from 40-130 or so. Top of 1st through 4th. 5th is a dog and 6th probably doesn't even pull any accelerator g force after 150. It's a .63 with and engine that doesn't make 400tq until 3500rpm. [/QUOTE]
