Ya I can't be sure of what is done suspension wise.

when I ran a 1.53 60 with my third gen I bent the lCA the torque arm and broke the trans mout

The first generation CTS had serious wheelhop problems. They redesigned the whole rear suspension to eliminate wheelhop. I have heard it was much better and from looking at the way that car launches it seems to be!

This is the LSA powered V right?

ya

3rd gen vs $70,000 CTS-V, I am quite sure they have made improvement sin suspension technology since then. I believe they made MAJOR changes to the control arms after the last generations problems. Having not seen underneath in person though I don't know how beefy it actually is, supposedly the new rear suspension it VERY strong on the V

true but its also a lot easier to stabilize a SRA than IRS and it was more to just give an idea of the force applied to things

either way DAMN!

It looks pretty beefy to me :)

WHY the fuck do you need all that extra weight. does it REALLLLY handle that much better then a properly setup SRA? i mean yeah it has benifits Obviously But worth all that weight???? i dunno.
