In most places I've seen, 'quickest' usually refers to straight-line acceleration (generally 0-60 times or 1/4 mile). They claim a 2.8s 0-60 for the ludicrous

In most places I've seen, 'quickest' usually refers to straight-line acceleration (generally 0-60 times or 1/4 mile). They claim a 2.8s 0-60 for the ludicrous option, and I believe it's hit 2.6, though I don't know what was was done to do that (modifications or just ideal conditions, that kind of thing). Either way, it's damn fast. The CTS-V is in the mid 3 range for 0-60. That doesn't diminish your point about track performance, but I don't think your parent was referring to lap times.
