Automotive Traveler Accepts the Cadillac CTS-V Challenge

Like most automotive blogs, Automotive Traveler has followed with interest Tuesday's gauntlet thrown down to the Internet's hot shoes by GM's Bob Lutz and the CTS-V Challenge. But unlike some blogs, Automotive Traveler has already put together a credible, if left field entry for the CTS-V Challenge. Automotive Traveler's Rich Truesdell has selected a 420-horsepower Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 for his challenge to Bob Lutz. Is he nuts? Visit automotivetraveler.com to see the details of his "off-the-wall" entry.

Allegedly beat the CTS V's time around the 'Ring according to Porsche, but regardless, its what I would show up with as well...

Although I gave you +1 on that...especially after seeing what the Panamera could do...I would think that Cadillac still stands to gain quite a bit of notoriety even if beaten by the Porsche...can you see Lutz braggin how it took a top of the line Panamera to beat him!...God help Porsche if it didn't win....it would be on every billboard from Detroit to Stuttgart.

They probably will put it through some kind of off-road or inclement weather test to make the Jeep win. But wait, with 20" Chrome wheels and low pro tires, who is taking the SRT-8 offroad?
