If I was you . I'd find out what class that Caddy falls in as a stock class NHRA and your Challenger. It's not who is the fastest. But the best running for class. I blew a 1966 AA/S 427 Chevelle off the track class for class with my 71 Buick GS 455 in H/SA . His record was 11.85 to my 12.95 . He ran a 11.95 and slow reaction time . To my 13.00 and good reaction time. But what hurt was my passing him doing 70 mph driving my car on the interstate later with his car on a roll out flat bed . I once put all the race car's on their trailer with my stock Toyota Supra on ET night at a 1/8th mile track . Almost perfect lights with dead on dail in.

Actually, I'm a salaried employee with actual responsibilities that are much more important than waiting in a parking lot for someone to show up to get into their car so that I could challenge them. I didn't even think the car was anyone's that worked in the same building as I do.
But enough of that, I believe my naturally aspirated engine will give him a run. I'm not sure how hard a caddy owner will push his car. I have been fooled before. I guess I'm pushing around 460 at the crank myself, so we will see.
The CTS V is 200#s heavier, for what thats worth. The article states 0-60 in 3.9 sec, thats very quick. I may need BUDMAN's twin turbo to pull it off.
